Qwen3-235B-A22B#

Qwen is a family of large language models developed by Alibaba Cloud, including dense models (Qwen2, Qwen2.5, Qwen3) and Mixture-of-Experts models (Qwen3 MoE, Qwen3-Next). The models feature innovations like QK layernorm, Gated-Delta Networks, and Zero-Centered RMSNorm for improved training stability and performance.

Qwen family models are supported via the Bridge system with auto-detected configuration and weight mapping.

Expected result

On exactly 256 GB300s, the canonical MXFP8 mock-data recipe completes exactly 50 optimizer steps at TP1/PP4/CP1/EP32/ETP1, GBS/MBS 8192/2, and sequence length 4096. All 50 keyed rows have finite loss with zero skipped or NaN iterations. Loss moves from 12.75473 to 8.126335; the final ten steps average 14920.840 ms, 1300.440 TFLOP/s/GPU, and 8784.492 tokens/s/GPU. The resolved configuration persists.
