Suhail launches Particle and its first model, Particle-1: a DeepSeek V4.1 Flash post-train that uses about 45% fewer tokens on coding tasks
On Oct 28, Mixpanel founder Suhail Doshi announced his new company Particle on X, with its first model, Particle-1, live now. Particle's blog says it is a reinforcement-learning post-train of DeepSeek V4.1 Flash that uses 28.4% to 52.2% fewer output tokens and costs 34.4% to 51.6% less per task across four coding and data engineering benchmarks, with pass rates inside the base model's confidence intervals. It is available through the Particle API, OpenRouter and Vercel AI Gateway; Particle's docs list $0.25 input and $1.00 output per million tokens with a 1,048,576-token context window.

vLLM Narrows Gap with DeepInfer to 6% on NVIDIA GB200, Reaching 1M Tokens/s per GPU on GB300
Hours after DeepSeek open-sourced DeepInfer, the vLLM project team released official benchmark parity data serving DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash. Utilizing DeepSeek's identical decoding setup (131K context window, nextn=3 speculative decoding), vLLM closed its throughput performance delta to within 6% of DeepInfer across batch sizes 8 through 256 on NVIDIA GB200 systems. On GB300 hardware, vLLM attained up to 1,000,000 tokens/second per GPU and 826 tokens/second per user, generating $38.96 in hourly GPU revenue at DeepSeek off-peak rates. vLLM simultaneously shipped day-0 runtime support for FastH3-Omni and Spark-X2.6-4B.

Ollama Cloud Launches US/EU Zero-Data-Retention Hosting for DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 with Claude Code CLI, While SemiAnalysis Reveals GLM-5.3 Was Built 100% via Post-Training
Ollama launched US- and EU-hosted Ollama Cloud with strict zero data retention and zero training, adding immediate support for DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 via one-line launch commands for Claude Code and OpenCode alongside Ollama v0.40.6. Meanwhile, SemiAnalysis revealed that GLM-5.3 was built entirely by post-training the previous GLM-5.2 base model without pretraining from scratch, achieving a 'night and day difference' in cybersecurity and agentic capabilities.
