Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
CodeGen2.5 on the Apple M1 Ultra 64GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 321k | 38.9-46.9 t/s | ~0.5-0.6 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 375k | 77.7-93.7 t/s | ~1-1.2 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 398k | 138.8-167.3 t/s | ~1.7-2.1 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
