1st promptCold start — includes initialization
>Solve: If a train travels at 60 mph for 2.5 hours, how far does it go?
Let me work through this step by step.
Given information:
- Speed = 60 mph (miles per hour)
- Time = 2.5 hours
Formula: Distance = Speed x Time
Calculation:
Distance = 60 mph x 2.5 h
= 150 miles
The train travels 150 miles.
Double-check: at 60 mph the train covers 60 miles each hour. In half an hour it covers 30 miles. So in 2.5 hours: 60 + 60 + 30 = 150 miles. Confirmed.
2nd promptWarm — model ready, no init overhead
>What if the train stops for 20 minutes halfway?
The stop doesn't change the total distance covered while moving, but it affects total trip time.
Breakdown:
- First half: 1.25 hours at 60 mph = 75 miles
- Stop: 20 minutes (no distance)
- Second half: 1.25 hours at 60 mph = 75 miles
Total distance: 150 miles (same)
Total time: 2.5 h + 0.33 h = 2.83 hours
Average speed: 150 / 2.83 = 53 mph
The distance stays the same but average speed drops to 53 mph because of the stop.
Estimated: 19.8 tok/s decode · 9.8s TTFT (warm) · 50 tok/s prefill
What limits this setup
This setup is broadly balanced for this model.
Shared-memory contention still exists
The OS, browser, and inference runtime all compete for the same physical memory pool, so real-world headroom is less forgiving than raw capacity suggests.

Frequently asked questions
Can MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB run Yi 1.5 34B?
Yes, MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB can run Yi 1.5 34B with a B grade (Runs well). Expected decode speed: 19.8 tok/s.
How much VRAM does Yi 1.5 34B need?
Yi 1.5 34B (34B parameters) requires approximately 32.2 GB of memory with Q4_K_M quantization.
What is the best quantization for Yi 1.5 34B?
The recommended quantization for Yi 1.5 34B is Q4_K_M, which balances quality and memory efficiency.
What speed will Yi 1.5 34B run at on MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB?
On MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB, Yi 1.5 34B achieves approximately 19.8 tokens per second decode speed with a time-to-first-token of 9774ms using Q4_K_M quantization.
Can MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB run Yi 1.5 34B for coding?
For coding workloads, Yi 1.5 34B on MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB receives a B grade with 19.8 tok/s and 4K context.
What context window can Yi 1.5 34B use on MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB?
On MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB, Yi 1.5 34B can safely use up to 4K tokens of context. The model's official context limit is 4K, but available memory constrains the safe maximum.
Is unified memory on MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB as fast as VRAM for Yi 1.5 34B?
Not always. MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB can often fit larger models thanks to unified memory, but a discrete GPU with dedicated high-bandwidth VRAM may still decode faster once the model fits. For this combination, the important distinction is capacity versus sustained throughput.
