QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 2252k 457.5-559.2 t/s ~0.9-1.1 (slow)
Q8 yes 2334k 915.1-1118.4 t/s ~1.9-2.3 (slow)
Q4 yes 2371k 1634.1-1997.2 t/s ~3.3-4.1 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
