Qwen 3.5 397B prompt processing on M3 Ultra (with MLX distributed + JACCL) - 3.4× speedup on 4 chips - scaling improves as context increases Really fun to use with opencode; generated a playable Asteroids clone in ~4 minutes (real time, including me playing it a bit).

A long time coming but new mlx-lm is here with better batching support in the server and Gemma 4. pip install -U mlx-lm Here is a video where a single M3 Ultra serves 5 opencode sessions with Gemma 4 26B that process ~130k tokens in ~1.5 minutes.

Step-3.5-Flash in action on MLX with OpenCode on a single (distributed testing in progress!) M3 Ultra to create a snake game! 🔥 6bit quantization. Perfect tool calling. Fast & powerful coding model! Recommended Inference Settings: Temperature: 1.0 Top-p: 0.95 Top-k: 40 🧵

Made a demo to do test-time-scaling with mlx-lm and a R1-based reasoning model. Same idea as S1: - To force a response, swap "Wait" for "</think>" - To think more, swap "</think>" for "Wait" Runs fast with 4-bit Qwen 32B on an M3 max:

Nemotron 3 Nano runs nicely with mlx-lm on an M4 Max. Could be a great model for local use on Mac: MoE + hybrid attention make it fast even for very long context. Generating in realtime with 4-bit model:

DeepSeek R1 (the full 680B model) runs nicely in higher quality 4-bit on 3 M2 Ultras with MLX. Asked it a coding question and it thought for ~2k tokens and generated 3500 tokens overall:

GLM-5 runs with mlx-lm on a single 512GB M3 Ultra in Q4. It's quite good in my initial testing and pretty fast as well. It generated a highly functional space invaders game using 7.1k tokens at 15.4 tok/s and 419GB memory. Thanks to Gökdeniz Gülmez and Tarjei Mandt for the port.

Next mlx-vlm release will ship with continuous batching support on the server 🚀 What's coming: → Continuous batching — new requests join the active batch immediately, no waiting. Mixed image + text batches supported → OpenAI-compatible API — field-for-field match with mlx-lm, reasoning/content split for thinking models, tag-aware streaming → Multi-turn tool calling — full tool use support across streaming and non-streaming, works with Gemma4 and other templates → Vision feature caching — cache image embeddings across turns. Gemma4: 228x speedup, Qwen3.5: 23x on cache hit All running locally on Apple Silicon. Check our this demo running 4 concurrent requests (mixed image + text) to gemma-4-26B-A4B-IT by Google Gemma in bf16 using Pi + MLX-VLM server on my M3 Ultra. One of the requests ingests a 8K resolution image!

NVIDIA sent us 2 DGX Sparks. For a while we wondered what we would do with them. The memory bandwidth is 273GB/s making it 3x slower than an M3 Ultra (819GB/s) for batch_size=1 inference. But it has 4x more FLOPS (100 TFLOPS compared to 26 TFLOPS). So we thought, what if we could combine the DGX Spark & M3 Ultra, and make use of both the massive compute on the DGX Spark and the massive memory-bandwidth on the M3 Ultra. We came up with a way to split inference across both devices and achieve a speedup of up to 4x for long prompts compared to the M3 Ultra on its own. Full details in the blog post linked below.

FROM PROMPT TO PLAYABLE: GROK JUST BUILT A ROCKET-SNAKE GAME IN MINUTES Ask Grok for a twist on Snake where you pilot a rocket and collect asteroids that extend your tail. It spits out glowing particles, fun physics, the whole vibe. Drop the code into Replit. Click Run. Boom - space-snake game, live. Takes less than 5 minutes to go from “I have an idea” to “Here’s a link, go play.” Grok 4 + Replit = rapid game dev for people with more ideas than patience. Source: matt palmer

Linear scaling achieved with multiple DeepSeek v3.1 instances. 4x macs = 4x throughput. 2x M3 Ultra Mac Studios = 1x DeepSeek @ 14 tok/sec 4x M3 Ultra Mac Studios = 2x DeepSeek @ 28 tok/sec DeepSeek V3.1 is a 671B parameter model - so at its native 8-bit quantization, it requires ~700GB of memory to run the model. EXO puts half of the layers on each device, combining their memory. EXO uses MLX distributed with TB5 interconnect, optimized for Apple Silicon. If we need higher throughput, adding two more devices lets us serve more users at once. EXO Labs handles all of this seamlessly - adding more devices to the cluster for linear scaling as we need it. The new EXO 1.0 will be open-source soonTM

update: qwen 3.6 27b dense q4 just one shotted octopus invaders game on a single 3090. hermes agent drove the whole thing, ~41 tok/s gen 21gb vram at full 262k context, thinking mode on. one prompt in and the canonical multi-file space shooter benchmark out, the same exact prompt i ran on qwen 3.5 27b dense back in march on the same card. 3.5 needed one external scope bug fix before the game would even load on first play. 3.6 needed nothing. 11 of 11 files written, 2411 lines of code, zero steering interventions, zero external fixes, playable on first load. 16 minutes 41 seconds wall clock from prompt to playable. consumer tier king on a single 3090 is locked tonight, and the silicon underneath my desk did not change between march and now. the open source ecosystem just moved the floor. watch it ship itself, the full 16 minutes 41 seconds sped to 3 minutes 45, no human touched the keyboard between the first prompt and the final frame.

Son of a Witch Anime - Episode 1 (Preview) Episode 1 is about 4 minutes long and ends when Kai transforms into a girl while sleeping. Available on Patreon (I worked really hard on it, so I want to promote it a bit). Made mostly with Grok and 11Labs.

oMLX is working really well as single machine inference engine for coding agents! Caching is managed perfectly (it can use a ton of disk space, be aware!) and oQ quantization delivers great results. Behind the scenes it uses the standard MLX building blocks (75% created by Prince Canuma 🙏): - mlx-lm - mlx-vlm - mlx-embeddings - mlx-audio I tested Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-oQ6 on M5 Max with two pi instances and it was fast and furious and leveraging cache like crazy as you can see in the video. Let me try to create some oQ versions (2,4,6?) of MiniMax M2.7 now and then I'll pass to distributed inference. I must win! 💪
