Quantization publisher
TheDrummer
TheDrummer publishes 24 quantizations across 2 models in our index, averaging 5.436 effective bits per weight. Their files differ in size from other publishers' builds of the same nominal quantization on 3 of the pairs we can compare — the same label does not mean the same file.

A quantization label describes a target, not a recipe. Publishers make different choices about which tensors to keep at higher precision, and some apply an importance matrix while others don't — so two files both honestly labelled the same thing can differ measurably in size and in quality.
