QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 613k 221.3-270.4 t/s ~10.2-12.5 (slow)
Q8 yes 632k 442.5-540.9 t/s ~20.5-25 (slow)
Q4 yes 640k 790.2-965.9 t/s ~36.6-44.7 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
