FAQ

Why is the IMatrix not applied everywhere?

According to this investigation , it appears that lower quantizations are the only ones that benefit from the imatrix input (as per hellaswag results).

How do I merge a split GGUF?

1. Make sure you have gguf-split available
   • To get hold of gguf-split , navigate to https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/releases
   • Download the appropriate zip for your system from the latest release
   • Unzip the archive and you should be able to find gguf-split
2. Locate your GGUF chunks folder (ex: shieldgemma-9b.Q8_0 )
3. Run gguf-split --merge shieldgemma-9b.Q8_0/shieldgemma-9b.Q8_0-00001-of-XXXXX.gguf shieldgemma-9b.Q8_0.gguf
   • Make sure to point gguf-split to the first chunk of the split.
