Eureka Machine architecture: 49 layers, 256 experts, 216 tok/s on a 5090 in early runs

Third-party notes on Eureka Machine: all benchmark and speed numbers are self-reported, and no paper exists yet. Early outside runs look good — 216 tok/s on an RTX 5090 per @witcheer, though throughput slows as context fills. The real test is whether model #2 arrives faster.

Architecture details: 49 layers, 256 experts with 6 picked per token plus 1 shared. 35 layers use sliding-window attention (513 tokens) and 14 use full attention with no positional encoding. The architecture search started from 35B/3B active and moved to 40B/2.5B.
