I've been using Qwen3.6-37B-A3B on an M1 Max w/ llama.cpp and for my practical uses I prefer it to qwen3.8. When 3.8 does answer its slower and, qualitatively, marginally better than qwen3.6, but 3.8 often ends up in unresolved thought loops and runs slower. The Moe 3.6 on my setup is much faster, 500t/s peaks, 30t/s typical, vs 3.8 150 peak, 4-9 t/s typical.

While I've spend a little time tuning, I'm assuming there will be deeper tuning for 3.8 that might close the gap.
