Sol 6.1 is incredibly incredibly slow, 20t/s slow (vs the ~70-80 of Terra 6.1 and Luna 6). It wouldn't be so much slower if it was just a distillation, surely? There's something else going on there.

There was some (admittedly flimsy) evidence from a microsoft model description card that it's doing multiple passes through its own weights before token generation to improve output; it might be an architecture change that's making it slow, moreso than raw size

Is it using comparable tokens per task?

How are you getting these numbers?

But is it slower than Astra?
