Glimmer over-eager with MCP tools
Found Muse Glimmer overthinking in OpenWebUI with a FastMCP server, even using Python to compute emissions on the carwash test; disabling tools made it reasonably efficient.

Muse Glimmer overthinking like crazy
I'm just using OpenWebUI with a simple FastMCP server. Every other model I've tried will simply run a few lines of Python and give me the result. Glimmer seems to overthink like crazy to the point of being useless. On the carwash test it tried to compute emissions using Python. I'm using the recommended sampling parameters, default template, and I've tried both unsloth's Q6_K_XL and Meta's dynamic GGUFs. Any ideas? EDIT: It seems like it's definitely related to the tools available. With them disabled, it's reasonably efficient. I guess it's just overly eager to call every tool it can unlike Qwen or Gemma in my experience.
