Thanks to the community help I finally launched this llm. LM Studio refused to load weight onto second GPU but Unsloth Studio did so everything was done in there.

I can run the mediums, but sometimes I want a faster option that's smarter than Qwen 27B/35B. On my hardware I get like 500 to 800 tok/s prefill and 16 to 22 tok/s gen on ~120B class models, which is not the worst but it does get a bit annoying on agentic coding tasks.

If you were able to get an inference machine that could do decode at 1k toks/s or even 10k tok/s, would that even be helpful? Would it unlock any new use cases?

I have also seen a lot of others post about not getting good results out of… 19 r/LocalLLaMA community 15d ago The idea: on a CPU the decode speed depends on the active params per token, not the total. My objective is trying to run a 10B at 100tok/s on a mid level PC (No GPU). On the CPU, batch 1 is memory bandwidth bound. But if token/s = bandwidth / (bytes_per_weight * active_weights_per_token) the total number of parameters doesnt slow down the generation speed. So building the architecture aroud a small batch "active parameters per token" (ternary… 17 Hugging Face Daily Papers research 15d ago CodeNib: A Multi-View Data System for Serving Repository Context to Coding Agents Abstract Coding agents repeatedly search, navigate, and retain context from evolving repositories, but disconnected indexes, language servers, and task-local histories force repeated discovery and obscure lifecycle costs.
