llama.cpp version 0.4.0 introduces initial architecture support for the Qwen3.8-Flash-Next and NVIDIA Nemotron-3-Puzzle-75B-A9B models, alongside a bump of the underlying ggml library to version 0.23.0.

  • Added on-demand lazy tensor reading and per-slot server context limits.
  • Updated ggml to 0.23.0 with sparse flash attention and Apple RDMA transport support.
  • Introduced video input options, n-gram history lookup, and quantizer RAM caps.
  • Enabled `preserve_reasoning` by default in the server and improved multimodal tokenization helpers.

These changes expand model compatibility and provide developers with finer control over memory usage and server resource allocation.
