Why this result
Holo3-35B-A3B is clearly ahead on the provisional aggregate, 74 to 64. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
Holo3-35B-A3B's sharpest advantage is in agentic, where it averages 82.6 against 69.3.
Composer 2.5 is the reasoning model in the pair, while Holo3-35B-A3B 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. Composer 2.5 gives you the larger context window at 200K, compared with 64K for Holo3-35B-A3B.
