It appears to be about as smart as Qwen 3.5 9b but maybe not as good as Ling 3.0 Tiny 8b-a1b

I have a soft spot for granite4.1
LFM3 1.7B and omni are surprisingly usable.
The official q8 quants are super fast but much much lower quality, so if you can go with the native bf16 weights.
I want to try fine tuning the q8 though for specific tasks, it seems like you cod get a really good balance
