Download sizes by quantization

Lower quantization means a smaller file and less memory, at some cost to quality. Q4_K_M is the usual starting point. What is this?

Quant	Download	RAM @ 4K	RAM @ 32K	Source
Published	689 GB	699 GB	749 GB	Rakuten/RakutenAI-3.0.1

Download sizes are measured from the published files named in the Source column. The RAM columns add the context cache, calculated from the model's configuration, and a runtime allowance of 10% of the download (at least 0.5GB, at most 3GB).
