DeepSeek published accelerated versions of several models; the author highlights Gemma4-12B (12 billion parameters) — likely with vision — as the most interesting and possibly the strongest local 12B-class model. Qwen 3.5 is absent from the accelerated lineup, reportedly because DS/DSpark omits linear-attention support.
DeepSeek released accelerated model builds; the standout is Gemma4-12B (12B parameters) which the author presumes includes vision and may be the best local model in its weight class by some margin
Good guy DeepSeek gives us accelerated models
The most interesting one here is Gemma4-12B, I presume vision included. Might be the best local model in its weight class now, by some margin
Qwen 3.5 not included because DS[park] doesn't do linear attention I guess
