New dual-3090 report corrects host RAM guidance to 94 GB: GiB and GB are not interchangeable
A club-3090 report covers QEngine 1.3.4.2 and new weights, correcting RAM units. The 90K phase has one sample and several settings changed, so causal speedup claims are not justified.

At 21:40 UTC on November 2, club-3090 opened a report subsequently merged for Qwen3.8-Flash-Next on two RTX 3090 cards: QEngine 1.3.4.2, new default weights c0022018, eight slots, vision enabled, FLASH_COMM=auto and a 230 W power limit per card. This is the repository maintainer's self-report, not an independent AraoAI reproduction. Only a measurement date is given, so publication time cannot establish exact measurement boundaries.

The practical correction is RAM guidance. The configuration changes its host-RAM threshold from 88 to 94 decimal GB. Earlier notes compared GiB readings directly with a GB threshold. The reported MemAvailable decrease is 93.5 GB at ready and 104.7 GB after the benchmark. This is a system-wide change in available RAM, not private process memory or GPU memory. Fitting the weights on two cards is not the whole hardware requirement.

Keep phases separate. Narrative and code decode are reported as 165.52 and 158.36 tokens/s. Prefill at 10K and 90K is 1879 and 3615 tokens/s. These are different phases; pairing narrative decode with 90K prefill would invent a single configuration result. The 90K measurements have one sample each and are not evidence of stable gains.

Comparison is not attribution. The earlier run used another engine version and weights, sixteen slots and no vision. The author explicitly avoids a single-cause explanation. We likewise do not call this a universal version speedup. The repository configuration also flags PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0 for QEngine: verify licensing before commercial deployment.
For selection, check host RAM, GPU headroom, slot count and licensing together. This is a new community observation, not a verified independent reproduction in our database. Missing OS and precise measurement-time evidence remain gaps rather than guessed fields.
