Pick Mistral Large 2 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Granite-4.0-1B only becomes the better choice if its workflow or ecosystem matters more than the raw scoreboard.
Mistral Large 2 is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 52 to 40. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
Mistral Large 2's sharpest advantage is in multilingual, where it averages 79.1 against 27.5. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is MGSM, 27.5% to 81%.
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.
