A developer tested the newly released open-source model Ornith-1.0-35B (Q8 quantization) on a mini PC powered by an AMD Strix Halo APU (128GB RAM).

On the pi-local-coding-bench, the model scored impressively high—70% and 72% as judged by Opus 5 and Gemini 1.5 Pro, respectively. More notably, it completed the 50-task benchmark in under 9 minutes, compared to over 16 minutes for larger models, demonstrating exceptional efficiency for local execution.
