QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 469k 2335.1-2815.8 t/s ~42.8-51.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 470k 4670.2-5631.7 t/s ~85.5-103.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 471k 8339.6-10056.6 t/s ~152.7-184.2 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
