AlphaLink on the Apple M2 Ultra 192GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 2611k | 2924.7-3526.9 t/s | ~36.6-44.1 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 2612k | 5849.5-7053.8 t/s | ~73.1-88.2 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 2613k | 10445.5-12596 t/s | ~130.6-157.5 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
