weighted/imatrix quants of https://huggingface.co./billyjoe/quill-72b-instruct

<!-- provided-files -->
static quants are available at https://huggingface.co./mradermacher/quill-72b-instruct-GGUF
## Usage

If you are unsure how to use GGUF files, refer to one of [TheBloke's
READMEs](https://huggingface.co./TheBloke/KafkaLM-70B-German-V0.1-GGUF) for
more details, including on how to concatenate multi-part files.

## Provided Quants

(sorted by size, not necessarily quality. IQ-quants are often preferable over similar sized non-IQ quants)

| [GGUF](https://huggingface.co./mradermacher/quill-72b-instruct-i1-GGUF/resolve/main/quill-72b-instruct.i1-IQ2_M.gguf) | i1-IQ2_M | 29.4 |  |

| [GGUF](https://huggingface.co./mradermacher/quill-72b-instruct-i1-GGUF/resolve/main/quill-72b-instruct.i1-IQ4_XS.gguf) | i1-IQ4_XS | 39.8 |  |
| [GGUF](https://huggingface.co./mradermacher/quill-72b-instruct-i1-GGUF/resolve/main/quill-72b-instruct.i1-Q4_K_S.gguf) | i1-Q4_K_S | 44.0 | optimal size/speed/quality |
| [GGUF](https://huggingface.co./mradermacher/quill-72b-instruct-i1-GGUF/resolve/main/quill-72b-instruct.i1-Q4_K_M.gguf) | i1-Q4_K_M | 47.5 | fast, recommended |
| [PART 1](https://huggingface.co./mradermacher/quill-72b-instruct-i1-GGUF/resolve/main/quill-72b-instruct.i1-Q6_K.gguf.part1of2) [PART 2](https://huggingface.co./mradermacher/quill-72b-instruct-i1-GGUF/resolve/main/quill-72b-instruct.i1-Q6_K.gguf.part2of2) | i1-Q6_K | 64.4 | practically like static Q6_K |

Here is a handy graph by ikawrakow comparing some lower-quality quant
types (lower is better):

## Thanks

I thank my company, [nethype GmbH](https://www.nethype.de/), for letting
me use its servers and providing upgrades to my workstation to enable
this work in my free time. Additional thanks to [@nicoboss](https://huggingface.co./nicoboss) for giving me access to his hardware for calculating the imatrix for these quants.
