Good point. I don't think your conclusion is far off. The biggest change for me was simplifying the stack instead of adding one more optimization layer.

What exact setup are you running? Is this local-only or are you routing anything externally?

I'd approach it in a boring order. If you're on Ollama, I'd confirm the version first and then reduce variables until the behavior is obvious. Not glamorous advice, but repeatable baselines save a lot of time.

Good point. That matches what I saw on dual 3090.

A couple things I'd check first. Before rebuilding anything, I'd test one clean baseline with Qwen and compare from there.
