Can the Apple M2 Max 32GB run TrellisNet-MoS (1.4x larger) PTB?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
TrellisNet-MoS (1.4x larger) PTB on the Apple M2 Max 32GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 416k | 4000-4823.5 t/s | ~100-120.6 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 416k | 8000-9647.1 t/s | ~200-241.2 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 416k | 14285.7-17226.9 t/s | ~357.1-430.7 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
