Is there any <3B model with usable 200k+ context window?

I noticed a post on r/LocalLLaMA asking if there is a 3B model with a usable context window of at least 200,000 tokens. The poster is looking for a small model to process conversation transcripts from larger models while maintaining a good context window.

  • The ask includes the need for a low hallucination rate and not being overly verbose.
  • Some potential candidates have been identified, including qwen 3.5-2B as having the best potential to meet these requirements.
  • This context window is crucial for an interpretability project that operates entirely in prefill mode, ensuring fast enough performance and smartness.
