Qwen2.5-1M: Deploy your own Qwen with context length up to 1M tokens

QwenLM releases open-source Qwen2.5-1M models supporting up to one million token contexts.

  • Training begins with a pre-trained checkpoint that originally had a 4K token context length before expansion.
  • The 7B model exhibits minor errors when retrieving information from documents containing up to 1M tokens.

Hugging Face does not say who downloads a model or with what. These are the proxies: API providers listing it, quantized builds, fine-tunes/adapters/merges, and Spaces that load it.

Served by 1 API provider; heavily run locally (69 quantized builds); a big base for builders (83 fine-tunes, adapters and merges).

The story so far

Weights, every dated article, and repo commits on one rail.

Most coverage came in the first two weeks

Teal is the weights (2025-01-23), amber triangles are 6 dated articles (each links to it), grey ticks are repo commits.

QwenLM releases open-source Qwen2.5-1M models supporting up to one million token contexts. The 7B and 14B checkpoints significantly outperform their 128K counterparts in long-context tasks while maintaining short-text capabilities. A new vLLM-based inference framework accelerates processing by 3x to 7x faster using Dual Chunk Attention. Deploying the 7B model requires at least 120GB VRAM, while the 14B model needs at least 320GB VRAM.written, reviewed, cited
  • Training begins with a pre-trained checkpoint that originally had a 4K token context length before expansion.
  • The 7B model exhibits minor errors when retrieving information from documents containing up to 1M tokens.
  • Processing 1M-token sequences on the 7B model consumes 71GB of VRAM for MLP layer activations.

Qwen2.5 introduces dense decoder-only models pretrained on up to 18 trillion tokens, available in sizes from 0.5B to 72B parameters. Most variants are licensed under Apache 2.0, excluding the 3B and 72B models, and support a 128K context window with 8K generation limits. Specialized versions for coding and mathematics offer enhanced performance on benchmarks like HumanEval and MATH.written, reviewed, cited
  • Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-Instruct outperforms many larger language models across a range of programming languages and tasks.
  • Qwen2.5-Math-72B-Instruct general performance surpasses both Qwen2-Math-72B-Instruct and GPT4-o.
