+## Quantization
+
+With `quantize: true`, `quantize_model` swaps every `nn.Linear` for an
+`optimum.quanto` quantized one. Their matmul kernel **only accepts 2D or 3D
+activations** (`assert activations.ndim in (2, 3)`) — a `Linear` you feed a 4D
+tensor works fine in bf16 but throws once quantized. If your network applies a
+`Linear` over a 4D tensor (e.g. projecting a `(B, L, D, N)` layer axis),
+reshape to 3D for the call and back afterwards.
+
+Also watch out for **slow bf16 kernels on vendored components**: `Conv3d` has no
+fast cuDNN bf16 path (it falls back to a slow one). If a frozen sub-model carries
+a `Conv3d` you don't actually run — e.g. a vision tower's patch embed on a VL
+text encoder — drop it (`text_encoder.model.visual = None`) to skip loading it;
+if you must run one, consider running that component in fp16/fp32.
