Pick Nemotron 3 Nano 30B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. 1-bit Bonsai 1.7B only becomes the better choice if its workflow or ecosystem matters more than the raw scoreboard.
Nemotron 3 Nano 30B has the cleaner overall profile here, landing at 42 versus 39. It is a real lead, but still close enough that category-level strengths matter more than the headline number.
Nemotron 3 Nano 30B's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 61.1 against 34.4. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is MATH-500, 34.4% to 73%.
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.
