How we got this number

Each generated token reads the whole model from memory once: 9.9 GB. The GEEKOM A6 (Ryzen 7 6800H, 32GB) moves 76.8 GB/s, so the ceiling is 7.8 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.
