Pick Gemma 3 27B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Granite-4.0-H-350M only becomes the better choice if its workflow or ecosystem matters more than the raw scoreboard.
Gemma 3 27B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 34 to 24. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
Gemma 3 27B's sharpest advantage is in multilingual, where it averages 61.4 against 14.7. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is MGSM, 64% to 14.7%.
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.
