Small rules clarification: early impressions - oxiderunner - 10-10-2026
Spent some time on this today and wanted to compare notes.
Two paths both seem viable, but they break down differently once workstation thermals becomes important.
Interested in tradeoffs more than fan loyalty.
This is mostly for local work rather than public serving.
The part that surprised me was how much the boring details mattered more than the model choice.

What worked for me was pretty simple. If you're on Ollama, I'd confirm the version first and then reduce variables until the behavior is obvious. A lot of these threads end up being one bad config plus a pile of conclusions drawn from it.

Need a little more detail here. Is this local-only or are you routing anything externally?

Interesting, I hadn't tried that. I ended up in about the same place using SGLang. I got better results once I stopped chasing one metric and just looked at whether the workflow felt usable.

Tried to reproduce it just now. The issue went away once I changed one setting and restarted the stack cleanly.

I think the bottleneck is somewhere else. I wouldn't optimize around that first. On my side the bigger swing came from the runtime and not the model.

Did a small comparison this afternoon. My result was mixed: first run looked bad, second run looked normal. The main thing that moved was latency, not quality.

Appreciate the detail. That matches what I saw on B200. I got better results once I stopped chasing one metric and just looked at whether the workflow felt usable.

Can you fill in a bit more context? Is this local-only or are you routing anything externally?

What exact setup are you running? Are you testing this on mini PC or something else?
