This is the kind of local AI test that actually matters.
A 7.9B MoE running at 152 tok/s on an M4 Pro with 64GB unified memory, while handling sensitive contract data completely offline.
No cloud. No data leaving the machine. Just a lightweight model doing useful work in under a second.
Local AI is becoming less of a demo and more of a real tool.

I measured it: swapping a dense 27B for a 30B-A3B MoE changes the local concurrency ceiling (same rig as prior test, one variable change)
The author tests and compares the concurrency performance of dense versus MoE AI models on a MacBook Pro, finding that MoE models scale significantly better due to lower memory bandwidth usage per token.
