I'm hoping too that they'll put out some MoE variants.

Qwen3.5:122b:a10b can run about twice as fast as this 27b dense model.

Edit: Like its predecessors, 3.8 seems really inclined to overthinking, and on a 27b dense model that's kind of painful. I think I'm going to stick with gemma4:26b-a3b as my go-to because it runs about 4x as fast and tends to only need a fraction of the tokens in its 'thinking' stage to get the same or similar answer.
