Hi,

My original trained file (.bin) is 318 MB. After quantizing it reduced to 250 MB.

Is this much of reduction in the file size expected or there's a possibility of further reduction in size? I had read somewhere that the reduction is usually by 90%. Am I missing something?

Hi @prabhatM , It highly depends on the quantization parameters. Could you copy/paste how you quantize your model so we can advise you?

Best regards, Onur
