Yi 34B 200K DARE MegaMerge V8 - GGUF
- Model creator: brucethemoose
- Original model: Yi 34B 200K DARE MegaMerge V8
Description
This repo contains GGUF format model files for brucethemoose's Yi 34B 200K DARE MegaMerge V8.
New GGUF formats
The GGUF files in this repo were made using new k-quant methods, added Jan 2024.
They will only be compatible with llama.cpp from Jan 4th onwards. Other clients may not have been updated for support yet.
The new GGUF k-quant method enables use of an "importance matrix", which is similar in concept to the calibration datasets used by GPTQ, AWQ and EXL2. This improves GGUF quantization quality.
The dataset used for generating the importance matrix for these GGUFs was: VMware open-instruct (5K lines).
Use of the importance matrix enables providing new quant formats: IQ2_XXS, IQ2_XS and Q2_K_S.
Note: adding support for this new GGUF quant method is still a work-in-progress for me. Other GGUF repos I'm creating won't necessarily have this, at least for the next couple of days.
Clients with GGUF support (not tested with this GGUF quant format specifically, yet)
- llama.cpp. The source project for GGUF. Offers a CLI and a server option.
- text-generation-webui, the most widely used web UI, with many features and powerful extensions. Supports GPU acceleration.
- KoboldCpp, a fully featured web UI, with GPU accel across all platforms and GPU architectures. Especially good for story telling.
- GPT4All, a free and open source local running GUI, supporting Windows, Linux and macOS with full GPU accel.

Compatibility
These quantised GGUFv2 files are compatible with llama.cpp from August 27th onwards, as of commit d0cee0d
They are also compatible with many third party UIs and libraries - please see the list at the top of this README.
Explanation of quantisation methods
Click to see details
The new methods available are:
- GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw)
- GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw.
- GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw.
- GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw
- GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw

Note: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.
How to download GGUF files
Note for manual downloaders: You almost never want to clone the entire repo! Multiple different quantisation formats are provided, and most users only want to pick and download a single file.
The following clients/libraries will automatically download models for you, providing a list of available models to choose from:
- LM Studio
- LoLLMS Web UI
- Faraday.dev
In text-generation-webui
Under Download Model, you can enter the model repo: TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GGUF and below it, a specific filename to download, such as: yi-34b-200k-dare-megamerge-v8.Q4_K_M.gguf.
Then click Download.
On the command line, including multiple files at once
I recommend using the huggingface-hub
Python library:
pip3 install huggingface-hub
Then you can download any individual model file to the current directory, at high speed, with a command like this:
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GGUF yi-34b-200k-dare-megamerge-v8.Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False
More advanced huggingface-cli download usage (click to read)
You can also download multiple files at once with a pattern:
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GGUF --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False --include='*Q4_K*gguf'
For more documentation on downloading with huggingface-cli
, please see: HF -> Hub Python Library -> Download files -> Download from the CLI.
To accelerate downloads on fast connections (1Gbit/s or higher), install hf_transfer
:
pip3 install hf_transfer
And set environment variable HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER
to 1
:
HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GGUF yi-34b-200k-dare-megamerge-v8.Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False
Windows Command Line users: You can set the environment variable by running set HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1
before the download command.
Example llama.cpp
command
Make sure you are using llama.cpp
from commit d0cee0d or later.
./main -ngl 35 -m yi-34b-200k-dare-megamerge-v8.Q4_K_M.gguf --color -c 200000 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "SYSTEM: {system_message}\nUSER: {prompt}\nASSISTANT:"
Change -ngl 32
to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.
Change -c 200000
to the desired sequence length. For extended sequence models - eg 8K, 16K, 32K - the necessary RoPE scaling parameters are read from the GGUF file and set by llama.cpp automatically. Note that longer sequence lengths require much more resources, so you may need to reduce this value.
If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT>
argument with -i -ins
For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to the llama.cpp documentation
How to run in text-generation-webui
Further instructions can be found in the text-generation-webui documentation, here: text-generation-webui/docs/04 ‐ Model Tab.md.
How to run from Python code
You can use GGUF models from Python using the llama-cpp-python or ctransformers libraries. Note that at the time of writing (Nov 27th 2023), ctransformers has not been updated for some time and is not compatible with some recent models. Therefore I recommend you use llama-cpp-python.
How to load this model in Python code, using llama-cpp-python
For full documentation, please see: llama-cpp-python docs.
First install the package
Run one of the following commands, according to your system:
# Base ctransformers with no GPU acceleration
pip install llama-cpp-python
# With NVidia CUDA acceleration
CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_CUBLAS=on" pip install llama-cpp-python
# Or with OpenBLAS acceleration
CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_BLAS=ON -DLLAMA_BLAS_VENDOR=OpenBLAS" pip install llama-cpp-python
# Or with CLBLast acceleration
CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_CLBLAST=on" pip install llama-cpp-python
# Or with AMD ROCm GPU acceleration (Linux only)
CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_HIPBLAS=on" pip install llama-cpp-python
# Or with Metal GPU acceleration for macOS systems only
CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_METAL=on" pip install llama-cpp-python
# In windows, to set the variables CMAKE_ARGS in PowerShell, follow this format; eg for NVidia CUDA:
$env:CMAKE_ARGS = "-DLLAMA_OPENBLAS=on"
pip install llama-cpp-python
Simple llama-cpp-python example code
from llama_cpp import Llama
# Set gpu_layers to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Set to 0 if no GPU acceleration is available on your system.
llm = Llama(
model_path="./yi-34b-200k-dare-megamerge-v8.Q4_K_M.gguf", # Download the model file first
n_ctx=200000, # The max sequence length to use - note that longer sequence lengths require much more resources
n_threads=8, # The number of CPU threads to use, tailor to your system and the resulting performance
n_gpu_layers=35 # The number of layers to offload to GPU, if you have GPU acceleration available
)
# Simple inference example
output = llm(
"SYSTEM: {system_message}\nUSER: {prompt}\nASSISTANT:", # Prompt
max_tokens=512, # Generate up to 512 tokens
stop=["</s>"], # Example stop token - not necessarily correct for this specific model! Please check before using.
echo=True # Whether to echo the prompt
)
# Chat Completion API
llm = Llama(model_path="./yi-34b-200k-dare-megamerge-v8.Q4_K_M.gguf", chat_format="llama-2") # Set chat_format according to the model you are using
llm.create_chat_completion(
messages = [
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a story writing assistant."},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Write a story about llamas."
}
]

Original model card: brucethemoose's Yi 34B 200K DARE MegaMerge V8
Yi 34B 200K DARE Merge v8
A merge of many Yi 34B 200K models using the new DARE Ties method via mergekit. The goal is to create a merge model that excels at 32K+ context performance, without any additional finetuning.
Prompt template: Orca-Vicuna
SYSTEM: {system_message}
USER: {prompt}
ASSISTANT:
It might recognize ChatML, and possibly Alpaca-like formats. Raw prompting as described here is also effective: https://old.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/18zqy4s/the_secret_to_writing_quality_stories_with_llms/
Running
Being a Yi model, run a lower temperature with 0.05 or higher MinP, a little repetition penalty, maybe mirostat with a low tau, and no other samplers. Yi tends to run "hot" by default, and it really needs a low temperature + MinP to cull Yi's huge vocabulary. See the explanation here: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/3841
24GB GPUs can efficiently run Yi-34B-200K models at 40K-90K context with exllamav2, and performant UIs like exui. I go into more detail in this post. 16GB GPUs can still run the high context with aggressive quantization.
I recommend exl2 quantizations profiled on data similar to the desired task. It is especially sensitive to the quantization data at low bpw. I've upload my own fiction-oriented quantizations here: https://huggingface.co/collections/brucethemoose/most-recent-merge-65742644ca03b6c514afa204
Lonestriker has also uploaded more general purpose quantizations here: https://huggingface.co/models?sort=trending&search=LoneStriker+Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8
To load/train this in full-context backends like transformers, you must change max_position_embeddings
in config.json to a lower value than 200,000, otherwise you will OOM! I do not recommend running high context without context-efficient backends like exllamav2, litellm or unsloth.
Testing Notes
See: https://huggingface.co/brucethemoose/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-merge-v5#testing-notes
An intermediate merge model was created to try and extend the context of several 4k models before adding them to the main merge, as seen in the "megamerge" recipe below. I can upload this upon request
In addition, the weight gradients are biased towards Vicuna-format models in the first few layers to try and "emphasize" the Orca-Vicuna prompt template. How sucessful this is remains to be seen.
