The tok/s figures are bandwidth-based estimates for this model. Where a device has a measured benchmark, the estimate is calibrated to that run. They are not measurements. Methodology.
Graphics card + system RAM (MoE experts in RAM)
Mixture-of-experts models only read a few experts per token, so llama.cpp can keep the expert weights in system RAM and everything else on the GPU (e.g. --n-cpu-moe / -ot exps=CPU). That lets a 12–32GB card run a much bigger model.
All figures below are estimates (Q4_K_M, 8k context, dual-channel DDR5-5600). How we estimate.
