Qwen 3.5 9B merge distills Claude 4.6 logic

This 9B merge punches well above its weight, successfully bridging the gap between small local models and frontier-tier reasoning.

• –Float32 precision merging preserves weight integrity, preventing the "lobotomization" common in lower-precision merges.
• –Distillation from Claude 4.6 Opus trajectories drastically reduces repetitive "thinking loops" found in base models.
• –The 262k context window and zero-refusal tuning make it a top contender for complex, uncensored creative work.
• –Achieving 42 tokens per second on an RTX 3060 makes high-tier intelligence accessible on budget hardware.
• –Full support requires the latest LM Studio 0.4.7+ or llama.cpp to handle the hybrid Gated DeltaNet architecture.
