GLM-4.7· Qwen3.5-27B

Quick Verdict

Pick GLM-4.7 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Qwen3.5-27B only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you need the larger 262K context window.

GLM-4.7 finishes one point ahead overall, 72 to 71. That is enough to call, but not enough to treat as a blowout. This matchup comes down to a few meaningful edges rather than one model dominating the board.

GLM-4.7's sharpest advantage is in reasoning, where it averages 78.9 against 60.6. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is LongBench v2, 79% to 60.6%. Qwen3.5-27B does hit back in knowledge, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

Qwen3.5-27B gives you the larger context window at 262K, compared with 200K for GLM-4.7.

Decision framing

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.
