UD-Q4_K_XL blows UD-Q8_K_XL out of the water in my benchmarks - is UD-Q8_K_XL broken?

I think it really is. It can't be that in the case Q4_K_XL generates a fully working program Q8_K_XL generates a lot of syntax errors and still broken even after manually fixing those. Same for other than coding domains. Tested on my mix of private/public tasks benchmark.
Can you look into this?
I can add details and example prompts if needed.

Have you tried using the same seed?

I didn't but I evaluated it over >20 different tasks, and the results are consistent.
For the non-coding tasks the difference is small, but somewhat exists too.
The only peculiarity is that these tasks are one-shot (so far) . Do you think it is important / worth a try? I have to break my job queue to test that now.

Try these values
This is my template from the model run bash script
MAX_TOKENS and MAX_CTX - You can install your own

TEMP=0.60
TOP_P=0.95
TOP_K=20
MIN_P=0.0
PRESENCE_PENALTY=0.0
REPEAT_PENALTY=1.00
FREQUENCY_PENALTY=0.0
DRY_MULTIPLIER=0.5
DRY_PENALTY_LAST_N=2052
REPEAT_LAST_N=1024
MAX_TOKENS=32768
MAX_CTX=262144
SEED=42

Even with seed, the determinism can fluctuate, so after all the tests, try reducing the temperature to 0.30 or, if you're really bloodthirsty :), to 0.00
Share your tests, it's very interesting, let's try to figure it out.
