Pick Gemini 3 Flash if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Granite-4.0-350M only becomes the better choice if you want the cheaper token bill.
Gemini 3 Flash is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 66 to 27. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
Gemini 3 Flash's sharpest advantage is in multilingual, where it averages 80.5 against 16.2. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is MGSM, 85% to 16.2%.
Gemini 3 Flash is also the more expensive model on tokens at $0.50 input / $3.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.00 input / $0.00 output per 1M tokens for Granite-4.0-350M. That is roughly Infinityx on output cost alone. Gemini 3 Flash gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 32K for Granite-4.0-350M.
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.
