Inference speed
Estimated decode speed (tokens/sec) for Solar Open 100B i1 at Q4_K_M across popular GPUs and Apple Silicon, including multi-GPU rigs, using the fastest local runtime per device. Fastest is MacBook Pro M4 Max 128GB at ~10 tok/s. Speed is memory-bandwidth bound, so cards that fit the whole model in VRAM run far faster than ones that offload to system RAM.
