TStore: Rethinking AI Model Hub with Tensor-Centric Compression

Model checkpoints are growing in both number and size, which makes archival, transfer, and deployment increasingly costly. General-purpose compressors can reduce storage requirements but ignore tensor structure, whereas existing tensor-specific compressors rely on fixed and format-specific pipelines. We present Brevis, which formulates lossless tensor compression as program synthesis. We design a typed domain-specific language (DSL) that captures recurring tensor structures, such as repeated regions and floating-point fields, through a set of reversible operators. Given a tensor, Brevis synthesizes a self-contained DSL program that reconstructs it bit-exactly. A checkpoint-specific production prior, learned from a small representative sample of tensors, guides a bounded A* search to synthesize compact programs, which can later be executed directly for bit-exact decompression. On 10 public checkpoints spanning language, audio, and image generation models, Brevis reduces 2.13 TB of checkpoint data to 1.41 TB, a 33.93% storage reduction. It produces archives up to 30.87% smaller than those of four general-purpose compressors, including zstd and gzip, and smaller archives than the tensor-specific compressors ZipNN and DFloat11. Under a practical concurrency configuration, Brevis achieves 3.60 GB/s compression and 6.61 GB/s decompression while preserving every source byte.

We propose a scalable tensorization framework for neural network compression based on slice-wise feature distillation. Unlike conventional tensor decomposition methods that rely on costly global finetuning, our approach decomposes the network into slices consisting of either individual layers or blocks (e.g., convolutional layers or MLPs), or small groups of consecutive layers, and tensorizes each slice independently to reproduce the intermediate representations of the original pretrained model. This modular strategy improves accuracy recovery, reduces data requirements, and enables efficient parallel optimization. Experiments on ResNet-34 show significant gains over conventional global tensorization, achieving near-lossless compression at moderate compression rates with faster optimization. Results on GPT-2 XL further demonstrate the scalability of the method and its applicability to large-scale models, particularly in distributed settings.

We present Nemotron-Labs-3-Puzzle-75B-A9B, a compressed variant of Nemotron-3-Super optimized for interactive deployment. We designed the model to maximize server throughput under high user throughput constraints. In interactive serving workloads on a single 8xB200 node, Puzzle-75B-A9B achieves approximately 2x higher server throughput than Nemotron-3-Super at matched user throughput constraints. In ultra-long-context deployment on a single H100 GPU, the compressed model increases 1M-token concurrency from 1 request to 8 requests. Puzzle-75B-A9B is constructed using a multi-stage pipeline that combines the Iterative Puzzle compression framework with knowledge distillation, reinforcement learning, quantization, and a Multi-Token Prediction head. The compression process jointly optimizes heterogeneous MoE pruning, active parameter budget, and Mamba pruning to improve inference efficiency while preserving model quality. We evaluate Puzzle-75B-A9B on a broad suite of reasoning, coding, multilingual, long-context, and agentic benchmarks. Despite substantial compression, the model retains strong downstream accuracy relative to the parent model across a wide range of tasks. These results demonstrate that large hybrid MoE models can be substantially optimized for deployment efficiency while maintaining strong downstream capability. Our model is publicly available on Hugging Face.
