Can the Apple M3 Max 48GB run AWD-LSTM + MoS + Partial Shuffled?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
AWD-LSTM + MoS + Partial Shuffled on the Apple M3 Max 48GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 635k | 3885.7-4685.7 t/s | ~97.1-117.1 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 636k | 7771.4-9371.4 t/s | ~194.3-234.3 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 636k | 13877.6-16734.7 t/s | ~346.9-418.4 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
FAQ
Can the Apple M3 Max 48GB run AWD-LSTM + MoS + Partial Shuffled?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~13877.6-16734.7 tok/s and fits up to 636k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~346.9-418.4 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 636k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
