9 concurrent 128K-context users on one A100 — fp16 fits 2, fp8's best clean rung fits 4. 134.1 tok/s aggregate, every user's retrieval needle verified (9/9), zero fallbacks. Reproducible for ~$12.
| Arm | Users @ 128K | Aggregate tok/s | Retrieval |
|---|---|---|---|
| fp16 | 2 | 66.6 | — |
| fp8 KV (best clean rung) | 4 | 117.6 | — |
| fraQtl | 9 | 134.1 | 9/9 verified |
Same GPU (A100-80GB), same model (Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507), same context (128K/user), CUDA graphs on. That's 2.0× fp16's aggregate at 4.5× its users, and 1.14× fp8's best at 2.25× its users — per-user 14.9 tok/s, disclosed. fp8 reaches 5 users only on a degraded rung; we quote its best.
Single-user decode, honestly: ~92% of fp16 at 8K, ~97% at 32K (weights dominate there), and faster than fp16 at 128K — the win grows exactly where fp16 runs out of memory. Never "lossless"; every number retrieval-gated.
Attention computed directly on compressed KV pages — no dequantize step. ~2.4–2.65× fp16 KV capacity, verified across three architectures (Qwen3-4B, Mistral-7B, Mistral-Nemo), retrieval-gated at every context. Pip-installable wheel for vLLM; llama.cpp membrane runtime for local serving.
Same file size as a standard Q4_K_M; measurably closer to the full-precision teacher across code, math, chat, tool calling, and long-form text.
Measured on Qwen 3.6 35B-A3B (symmetric top-20 KLD vs the Q8 teacher, 400-record held-out slices):
| Lane | KLD vs Q8 ↓ | Top-1 vs Q8 ↑ |
|---|---|---|
| Code + math | 0.0203 | 97.2% |
| General (chat + tools + long-form text) | 0.0485 | 93.2% |
~30% lower KLD at identical file size. Reproducibility drift across three independent runs: 0.00000.
