Intel's AutoRound post-training quantization is now integrated natively into vLLM-Omni, bringing W4A16 (4-bit) to Omni multimodal, diffusion image, and video models. It cuts Qwen3-Omni-30B from 66GB to 25GB with no quality cliff. Quantize once offline, then serve with the same command as the BF16 model.
📈 Highlights:
- weights shrink to ~1/4 of BF16, dropping FLUX.1-dev from 4 GPUs (TP=4) to a single one
- accuracy held on OmniBench, with ~1.3% drift on text-to-image
- on Intel XPU B60, the freed memory unlocks CFG Parallel for 1.55-1.67x faster guided diffusion
🙌 Thanks to @IntelAI, @HaihaoShen, and the vLLM-Omni team for the collaboration!
