Granite 4.2 8B
Granite 4.2 8B — the current WumboLabs evidence state on one page: tested profiles, validated context, and the full chronological testing history. Each value is attributed to the profile and event that measured it.
NOT READY / latest evidence 2026-09-24
WumboLabs tests Granite 4.2 8B on real consumer hardware. This is the canonical model page: current state first, then every tested profile and every evidence event. Values are attributed to the profile and event that measured them; historical findings remain the evidence of their tested stack and are never silently replaced.

Canonical evidence
Canonical public evidence: https://github.com/WumboLabs/evaluations/blob/adcfa178b6dd9b52eede2c433ffc691dbcd26941/models/granite-4.2-8b/events/granite-42-8b-rtx5070-welp-context-completion-20260924/REPORT.md
This event section is a human-readable derivative of the accepted local WELP campaign evidence named above; the campaign's REPORT.md is the authoritative scientific source. Results are bounded by the tested artifact, runtime, hardware, configuration, and protocol snapshot, and are not universal model rankings.
Canonical evidence
All canonical public evidence lives in WumboLabs/evaluations. Each event links an immutable full-commit/path citation; each profile remains a distinct scientific identity, not a separate repository.
