## Information

This is a Exl2 quantized version of [Norobara-ZLoss-8x7B](https://huggingface.co/Doctor-Shotgun/Norobara-ZLoss-8x7B)

Please refer to the original creator for more information.

Calibration dataset: Exllamav2 default

## Branches:

- main: Measurement files
- 3.5bpw-h6: 3.5 bits per weight, 6 head bits, for 24gb VRAM
- 6.0bpw-h6: 6 bits per weight, 6 head bits, for 48gb VRAM

## Notes

- 6.0bpw-h6 is recommended for the best quality to vram usage ratio (assuming you have enough vram).
- Please ask for more bpws in the community tab if necessary.

## Run in TabbyAPI

TabbyAPI is a pure exllamav2 FastAPI server developed by us. You can find TabbyAPI's source code here: [https://github.com/theroyallab/TabbyAPI](https://github.com/theroyallab/TabbyAPI)

If you don't have huggingface-cli, please run `pip install huggingface_hub`.

To run this model, follow these steps:

1. Make a directory inside your models folder called `Norobara-ZLoss-8x7B-exl2`

2. Open a terminal inside your models folder

3. Run `huggingface-cli download royallab/Norobara-ZLoss-8x7B-exl2 --revision 6.0bpw-h6 --local-dir Norobara-ZLoss-8x7B-exl2 --local-dir-use-symlinks False`
   
   1. The `--revision` flag corresponds to the branch name on the model repo. Please select the appropriate bpw branch for your system.

4. Inside TabbyAPI's config.yml, set `model_name` to `Norobara-ZLoss-8x7B-exl2` or you can use the `/model/load` endpoint after launching.

5. Launch TabbyAPI inside your python env by running `python main.py`
