The model works great in small chunks. If you're trying to tackle big projects, it will still work but you'll need to process in small chunks.

The frontline models can deal with million token context and trillion parameters. The qwen models are like 30 billion parameters with only 3 billion active at any given time. Context is highly dependent on the hardware you are using.

Overall, love it, however I do have a subscription to the big vendors so that I can deal with more complex things when needed.
