Don't Assume Your Cloud T4 Runs at Spec: Gemma 4 Decode Falls 7% as the Card Warms

11 Min Read

The same Tesla T4 on the same Google Cloud VM decoded Gemma 4 E2B at 115 tokens/s at 45 Β°C and 107 at 77 Β°C. The card sits at its 70 W limit, a hotter chip draws more power at the same clock, so the clock drops. No thermal throttle fires, and no spec sheet mentions it.

Do Drafters Work on Small Models? Gemma 4 E2B and E4B on Two Small GPUs

19 Min Read

Yes. Speculative decoding with Google's 59 MB QAT multi-token prediction (MTP) drafters speeds up Gemma 4 E4B 1.72x and E2B 1.40x on an 8 GB RTX 3050, and 1.49x and 1.18x on a 4 GB laptop GTX 1650 Ti, served by llama.cpp one request at a time, with unchanged GSM8K and BFCL scores.

10 Min Read

Fourteen Apache-2.0 and MIT open-weight models that fit one TPU v5e chip, served one after another through vLLM on the same pinned image and scored on GSM8K and BFCL against Gemma 4 E2B. Qwen3-4B matches Gemma's accuracy at 0.57x its output, SmolLM3-3B and Granite 3.3 2B match it on tool calls, and Gemma keeps the lead on long prompts.

26 Min Read

Why do 200-line agent prompts, Asimov's Three Laws, and sequential pre-landing checklists all fail the same way? How Fernando Flores's 1986 Committed Speech, Nuel Belnap's 1977 4-Valued Logic, and Tony Hoare's 1978 CSP turned our Makefile and init.d workflow into a self-healing Commitment Machine.
