Now I'm feeling pretty good about getting 10-11 tokens/sec running Qwopus 3.6-35B-A3B Q6_K on an old Mac Pro 2013 (trashcan) with 128GB RAM (DDR3), 12 core Xeon, dual D700s. Arch Linux and llama.cpp.

Anything smaller than a 16” runs into serious thermal problems; even an identically equipped 14” just can’t dissipate enough heat.

interesting! Yes, thermal is important. Pretty cool project man! Starred and checking it out!
