Can the Apple M2 Max 96GB run AMPLIFY?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
AMPLIFY on the Apple M2 Max 96GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1285k | 388.6-468.6 t/s | ~9.7-11.7 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1290k | 777.1-937.1 t/s | ~19.4-23.4 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1292k | 1387.8-1673.5 t/s | ~34.7-41.8 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
