How we got this number
Each generated token reads the whole model from memory once: 5.3 GB. The Minisforum UM790 Pro (Ryzen 9 7940HS, 32GB) moves 89.6 GB/s, so the ceiling is 17 tokens/sec. Real machines reach a fraction of that ceiling; we use 60%, an assumption until we get measured runs for this kind of machine. Send us your real numbers and we'll replace the estimate.
