Unsloth quantizes Inkling 2 Small: 594B MoE runs locally at 171.7GB in 1-bit

Unsloth published a guide to run Thinking Machines Lab's Inkling 2 Small locally — a 594B-parameter MoE with 17B active params, text+image input, 1M-token context, scoring 72.1% on DeepSWE v1.1 and 86.3% on SWEBench Pro v2 (Hard).

Key quantization data: the UD-IQ1S dynamic 1-bit GGUF needs only 171.7GB vs 394GB (NVFP4), retaining 89.7% of top-1% accuracy at 57% smaller. The guide recommends temperature 1.0, top-p 1.0, min-p 0.0 with xhigh reasoning effort, and explains switching reasoning effort (none/minimal/low/high/xhigh) via the GGUF template (--jinja in llama.cpp). Author gnukeith adds that Unsloth remains hugely underrated.
