Details

Running Qwen3.6-35B-A3B through the little-coder + llama.cpp combo on the Aider Polyglot 225-question set produced 177/225 = 78.67%, placing it in the top-10 band of the public leaderboard.

  • On the same hardware and the same harness, two previous runs of Qwen3.5 9B scored 104/225 = 46.22% and 101/225 = 44.89%.
  • The test environment was RTX 5070 Laptop 8GB VRAM, Intel i9-14900HX, 32GB DDR5, with llama.cpp built for CUDA 13.1 / sm_120.
  • The model was unsloth/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-GGUF UD-Q4_K_M (about 22.1GB), using the settings --n-cpu-moe 999, --flash-attn on, -c 32768, -t 16.

By language, JavaScript scored 89.8%, Python 88.2%, C++ 84.6%, Java 76.6%, Go 74.4%, and Rust 53.3%, confirming broad-based improvement. The key takeaway is that agent/scaffold and serving harness significantly determine the performance of local coding models.
