Qwen3.8-Flash-Next is 360 GB in BF16 and needs two data-center GPUs in FP8. This build serves it on one 96 GB Blackwell : 88.8 GiB of VRAM, the 51B n-gram table in host RAM, and no patched runtime. Two flags are load-bearing on a single GPU. `--distributed-executor-backend mp`: the default single-GPU executor never starts the n-gram offload worker, and the first forward waits on it forever — the server looks healthy and hangs. `VLLM_PLE_OFFLOAD_READY_TIMEOUT=1800`: the worker loads a 95 GB table before serving and the 600 s default can expire first. Host needs about 100 GB of free RAM. The reasoning parser and tool-call parser in this block are validated on this exact checkpoint: thinking lands in `reasoning` with no markup in `content`, and tool calls arrive as structured `tool_calls` with valid JSON arguments and `finish_reason: tool_calls`. If you have seen other NVFP4 cards warn that the automatic MoE backend picks `FLASHINFER_TRTLLM` and corrupts output: on this image on an RTX PRO 6000 the automatic choice is `FLASHINFER_CUTLASS`, printed at boot, and every number on this card went through it. Measured on the mixed sibling (same expert kernel), `--moe-backend marlin` decodes 10% faster single-stream (93.2 vs 84.6 tok/s) and 1–3% slower at concurrency 32, with TTFT up 12%; tool-calling under Marlin 79.5 (n=1). Marlin does not combine with MTP on this image: the BF16 MTP draft inherits the backend and refuses it, and the draft-scoped override in `--speculative-config` is ignored by Model Runner V2 until vllm-project/vllm#54788 lands. Choose MTP for interactive use, Marlin only without speculation. On vLLM nightly builds from early September the SM120 selector picks Marlin by default anyway (vllm#54788); the flag matters on this image. Two more flags are in the block since 2026-09-06: without them the image's defaults do not boot on a 96 GB card. A field report found it first and we reproduced both failures on this box the same day. Without MTP the default `--max-num-seqs` (1024) exceeds the Mamba state blocks left at 0.92 utilization (598 here) and CUDA graph capture aborts with `Engine core initialization failed`; with MTP at the native 262,1

MODEL HANDBOOK

Understand before you choose

Selection guide & FAQ
How should API prices be compared?+

Separate input, output and cache rates, then estimate the same workload. Image, audio and video rates may use items, duration or resolution rather than tokens.

Do open weights mean free commercial use?+

Not necessarily. Check each version’s license, commercial restrictions and policies. Self-hosting also incurs compute and maintenance costs.

Is the top-ranked model the best for me?+

Rankings depend on tasks, versions and methods. Compare accuracy, latency, reliability and costs on your own workload.
