Modal adds Day 0 support for Mistral 3 with GPU snapshotting for 10x faster cold starts

Modal now offers Day 0 support for Mistral 3, letting developers deploy the open model family on serverless GPUs without managing infrastructure. On the 3B Ministral 3 model, Modal's GPU snapshotting feature cut median cold start time from about 118s to about 12s, nearly a 10x reduction. Ministral 3 comes in 3B, 8B, and 14B sizes and performs competitively with the Qwen 3-VL series on benchmarks.
