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 (partial layer offload)
Dense models can split layers between GPU and system RAM, but every token reads all the weights, so the RAM part is slow. All figures below are estimates (Q4_K_M, 8k context, dual-channel DDR5-5600). How we estimate.
