MiMo-V2.6-Distill-Qwen-9B-OptiQ-4bit
> **Built with mlx-optiq**, the MLX-native toolkit to quantize, fine-tune, and serve LLMs locally on Apple Silicon, no PyTorch and no cloud. Try the Lab · All OptiQ quants · Docs A 4-bit mixed-precision MLX quant of XiaomiMiMo/MiMo-V2.6-Distill-Qwen-9B, a distillation of the Qwen3.5 9B architecture. Sensitive layers are kept at 8-bit and robust ones at 4-bit, rather than crushing everything to a uniform width. Honestly stated, because it differs from most OptiQ quants: **the per-layer allocation was not measured on this model.** It was transferred from mlx-community/Qwen3.5-9B-OptiQ-4bit, whose allocation came from a KL-divergence sensitivity pass over a six-domain calibration mix (prose, reasoning, code, agent, tool-call, instructions).
