I did! I do think Mistral models are pretty okay, but even the 4-bit quantized version runs at about 16 tokens/second, more or less usable but a biiiig step down from the MoE options. Might have to swap out Ollama for vLLM though and s

The software is largely there: you can run Ollama, vLLM or whatever else you please today. The models are somewhat getting there: even the smaller ones like Qwen3-30B-A3B and Devstral-23B are okay for some use cases and can run decently fas
