What's new in v1.2.1

Evolution 3.60.1 verified

The plugin builds and runs unchanged against the Evolution 3.60 series on Manjaro. No EUI / EUIManager API changes were needed on top of the 3.56 baseline — if you were on v1.2.0, this is a drop-in upgrade.

Optional CPU quantization (ARGOS_COMPUTE_TYPE)

You can now opt into ctranslate2 quantization for noticeably faster CPU translation. Default behavior is unchanged.

# Recommended — 2–4× faster CPU translation, minimal quality loss
ARGOS_COMPUTE_TYPE=int8 evolution

# Or for slightly higher quality at modest speedup
ARGOS_COMPUTE_TYPE=int8_float32 evolution

Valid values: auto (default), int8, int8_float32, int8_float16, int16, float16, bfloat16, float32, default. Invalid values are rejected with a warning and fall back to the argos default — they no longer crash deep inside ctranslate2.
