Can the Apple M4 Max 48GB run StyleGAN3-T?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
StyleGAN3-T on the Apple M4 Max 48GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 636k | 83246.6-100385.7 t/s | ~1524.7-1838.6 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 636k | 166493.3-200771.3 t/s | ~3049.3-3677.1 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 636k | 297309.4-358520.2 t/s | ~5445.2-6566.3 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
