Holo3-35B-A3B· o4-mini (high)

Quick Verdict

Pick Holo3-35B-A3B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. o4-mini (high) only becomes the better choice if you need the larger 200K context window or you want the stronger reasoning-first profile.

Holo3-35B-A3B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 78 to 58. 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 77.8 against 58.5. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is OSWorld-Verified, 77.8% to 55%.

o4-mini (high) 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. o4-mini (high) gives you the larger context window at 200K, compared with 64K for Holo3-35B-A3B.

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.
