Winner · 4/8 categories1-bit Bonsai 1.7B· DeepSeekMath V2
Pick DeepSeekMath V2 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. 1-bit Bonsai 1.7B only becomes the better choice if you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.
DeepSeekMath V2 is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 61 to 39. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
DeepSeekMath V2's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 82.6 against 34.4. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is GPQA, 20.7% to 79%.
DeepSeekMath V2 is the reasoning model in the pair, while 1-bit Bonsai 1.7B is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. DeepSeekMath V2 gives you the larger context window at 128K, compared with 32K for 1-bit Bonsai 1.7B.
BenchLM keeps the benchmark table and the operator tradeoffs on the same page so a better score does not hide a materially slower, pricier, or smaller-context model.
Runtime metrics show N/A when BenchLM does not have a sourced snapshot for that exact model. The scoring rules and freshness policy are documented on the methodology page.
