Prompts you use to test/trip up your LLMs
I'm obsessed with finding prompts to test the quality of different local models. I've pretty much landed on several that I use across the board. Tell me about the Apple A6 (a pass is if it mentions Apple made their own microarchitecture called swift for the CPU cores, the main thing that the A6 is historically known for as the first Apple SOC to do it. This tests if it is smart enough to mention historically relevant information first) Tell me about the history of Phoenix's freeway network (A pass is if it gives a historical narration instead of just listing freeways. We asked for history, after all. Again, testing for its understanding of putting relevant information first.) Tell me about the Pentium D. Why was it a bad processor ( A pass is it it mentions that it glued two separate penti

RTX 5090 gemma4-26b TG performance report
Nothing exhaustive... but I thought I'd report what I've seen from early testing. I'm running a modified version of vLLM that has NVFP4 support for gemma4-26b. Weights come in around 15.76 GiB and the remainder is KV cache. I'm running full context as well. For a "story telling" prompt and raw output with no thinking, I'm seeing about 150 t/s on TG. TTFT in streaming mode is about 80ms. Quality is good! submitted by /u/Nice_Cellist_7595 [link] [comments]
