# Deepseek-V2-Chat-GGUF

Quantizised from [https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V2-Chat](https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V2-Chat)

Using llama.cpp fork: [https://github.com/fairydreaming/llama.cpp/tree/deepseek-v2](https://github.com/fairydreaming/llama.cpp/tree/deepseek-v2)

# Warning: This will not work unless you compile llama.cpp from the repo provided (and set metadata KV overrides)!

# How to use:

**Downloading the bf16:**

- Find the relevant directory
- Download all files
- Run merge.py
- Merged GGUF should appear

**Downloading the quantizations:**
- Find the relevant directory
- Download all files
- Point to the first split (most programs should load all the splits automatically now)

**Running in llama.cpp:**

To start in command line interactive mode (text completion):
```
main -m DeepSeek-V2-Chat.{quant}.gguf -c {context length} --color -i
```
To use llama.cpp OpenAI compatible server:
```
server \
  -m DeepSeek-V2-Chat.{quant}.gguf \
  -c {context_length} \
  (--color [recommended: colored output in supported terminals]) \
  (-i [note: interactive mode]) \
  (--mlock [note: avoid using swap]) \
  (--verbose) \
  (--log-disable [note: disable logging to file, may be useful for prod]) \
  (--metrics [note: prometheus compatible monitoring endpoint]) \
  (--api-key [string]) \
  (--port [int]) \
  (--flash-attn [note: must be fully offloaded to supported GPU])
```
Making an importance matrix:
```
imatrix \
  -m DeepSeek-V2-Chat.{quant}.gguf \
  -f groups_merged.txt \
  --verbosity [0, 1, 2] \
  -ngl {GPU offloading; must build with CUDA} \
 --ofreq {recommended: 1}
```
Making a quant:
```
quantize \
  DeepSeek-V2-Chat.bf16.gguf \
  DeepSeek-V2-Chat.{quant}.gguf \
  {quant} \
  (--imatrix [file])
```

# Quants:
```
- bf16 [size: 439gb]
- q8_0 (later, please use q4_k_m for now) [estimated size: 233.27gb]
- q4_k_m [size: 132gb]
- q2_k [size: 80gb]
- iq2_xxs (generating, using importance matrix)
- q3_k_s (generating, using importance matrix) [estimated size: 96.05gb]
```

# Planned Quants (using importance matrix):
```
- q5_k_m
- q5_k_s
- q3_k_m
- q6_k
- iq4_nl
- iq4_xs
- iq2_xs
- iq2_s
- iq2_m
- iq1_s
- iq1_m
```

Note: the model files do not have some DeepSeek v2 specific parameters, will look into adding them

Please use commit `039896407afd40e54321d47c5063c46a52da3e01`, otherwise use these metadata KV overrides:
```
deepseek2.attention.q_lora_rank=int:1536
deepseek2.attention.kv_lora_rank=int:512
deepseek2.expert_shared_count=int:2
deepseek2.expert_feed_forward_length=int:1536
deepseek2.leading_dense_block_count=int:1
```

A precompiled AVX2 version is avaliable at `llama.cpp-039896407afd40e54321d47c5063c46a52da3e01.zip` in the root of this repo.

# Censorship:

This model is quite censored, finetuning on toxic DPO might help.
