Can the Apple M4 Max 64GB run Hybrid H3-125M?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Hybrid H3-125M on the Apple M4 Max 64GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 852k | 1485.1-1790.9 t/s | ~27.2-32.8 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 854k | 2970.2-3581.8 t/s | ~54.4-65.6 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 855k | 5304-6396 t/s | ~97.1-117.1 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
