Qwen 3.6 27B DeepSWE Benchmark Results Highlight Gap Between Local and Closed-Source Models
r/LocalLLaMA top day17h agoBenchmarkA community benchmark of Qwen 3.6 27B on DeepSWE yielded a score of 1.79% (18/20th place), slightly outperforming Haiku 4.5. Run on a single RTX 6000 Blackwell GPU via vLLM with reasoning enabled, the test averaged 32 minutes and 44k output tokens per task. The author notes that while Qwen 3.6 27B represents a 'poor man's local SOTA,' the massive gap compared to frontier closed models suggests local LLMs are struggling to keep pace in complex coding.
