The DeepSeek Flash variants already document their sizes and RAM class
in download_model.sh, but the GLM 5.2 entries only described the quant
layout. Measured on disk after download:
glm-antirez-iq2xxs ~211 GB (does not fully fit 128 GB RAM;
use --ssd-streaming on single-node)
glm-antirez-q2 ~262 GB (already documented)
glm-antirez-q4 ~434 GB (already documented)
glm-unsloth-q4 ~467 GB (11 shards)
Also annotate the README download list with the same sizes so a
quick glance is enough to pick a machine class.

For science: iq2xxs is 211 GB (not 81 — that was ds4f-q2). SSD streaming loads an ~800B MoE in ~47 GiB resident, but CUDA GLM prefill fails silently on GB10 (host registration unsupported; Metal/ROCm-first streaming paths). PR antirez/ds4#728 adds the missing GLM sizes upstream.

The missing size on iq2xxs made it easy to confuse with the DeepSeek Flashds4f-q2entry ("about 81 GB… recommended for 96 and 128 GB RAM machines"), which sits right above the GLM block in the help text.Also confirmed
