Summary

JetBrains Mellum 2.1 12B A2.5B MoE 被评价为一款表现优秀的编码模型,能在 M4 Max 上以 130k 全上下文跑出 60 TPS,在 9070XT 上达到 140 TPS,且可在 8GB/12GB 显卡上流畅运行。

It runs at around m4 16 at 60 tps at full 130k context, you can easily run a Q8 if you have a 16 GB GPU, I was able to get 140TPS on 9070xt, It’s an MoE so I think we can run it well on smaller cards too, 8GB, 12GB should be possible to get upwards of 30-40 tps. I have used it a bit, it can code, but I think having a bigger model plan tasks in detail would make it quite good for quick task execution.
