first LoRA that actually helped

Curious what people here are seeing.

My current setup is LM Studio with 7900 XTX, and I keep running into structured output.

Would appreciate practical advice rather than theory.

worth checking the driver first.

My first guess would be this: Start by verifying the driver/runtime combo, then test with a smaller prompt, then look at quant drift. Once you know the plain path works, then add the faster path back in piece by piece.

I think the bottleneck is somewhere else. I've seen people blame workstation thermals when the real issue was much more mundane. Not saying you're wrong, just that I wouldn't lock that in as the lesson yet.

I don't think that's the whole story. I wouldn't optimize around that first. On my side the bigger swing came from the runtime and not the model.

that fixed it for me too.
