Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
DataGemma on the Apple M2 Ultra 192GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 446k | 10-12.1 t/s | ~0.1-0.2 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 550k | 20-24.1 t/s | ~0.3-0.3 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 595k | 35.7-43.1 t/s | ~0.4-0.5 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
