A 9B vision-language model optimized for local deployment and low-latency applications.
This model requires a specialized High-VRAM environment. Ensure you have the latest CUDA Drivers or Metal Framework installed.
Minimum VRAM: 9GB VRAM Recommended
The GLM-4.6V-Flash model by Zhipu AI is a 9B parameter architecture optimized for vision tasks. It requires approximately 7GB of VRAM to comfortably run locally using a Q4_K_M quantization. Extending the context window up to 32,768 tokens will dynamically allocate further VRAM, meaning high-bandwidth memory hardware is strictly advised.
For running GLM-4.6V-Flash at maximum tokens-per-second, we recommend using LM Studio or Ollama with a GGUF quantization (Q4_K_M or Q6_K). If you are multi-GPU, use vLLM to distribute the layers across your VRAM pool for optimal throughput.
You will need a GPU with at least 9GB of VRAM to run the Q4_K_M quantized version smoothly with a moderate context window.
The simplest method is utilizing Ollama by executing 'ollama run glm4-vision' directly in your command line. Alternatively, you can search for the model via LM Studio's interface.
