Can the Apple M3 Max 48GB run GePpeTto?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
GePpeTto on the Apple M3 Max 48GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 633k | 1162.4-1401.7 t/s | ~29.1-35 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 635k | 2324.8-2803.4 t/s | ~58.1-70.1 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 635k | 4151.4-5006.1 t/s | ~103.8-125.2 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
