Discussion on int4 and int8 Mixed Quantization
a_beautiful_rhind · reddit · 2026-07-17
The post mentions that int4 / int8 mixed quantization is now possible and asks how to find the optimal balance between quality and speed in such hybrid setups.
The original post includes a Hugging Face link to relevant mixed-quantization models and workflows. The focus is strictly on the trade-offs for inference deployment, not on a new model release.
