Can the Apple M4 Max 48GB run AWD-LSTM-DOC (fin) (37M)?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
AWD-LSTM-DOC (fin) (37M) on the Apple M4 Max 48GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 635k | 5017.3-6050.3 t/s | ~91.9-110.8 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 636k | 10034.6-12100.5 t/s | ~183.8-221.6 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 636k | 17918.9-21608.1 t/s | ~328.2-395.8 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
FAQ
