GLM 5.2 boosts Mac Studio performance for large context models

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new version of the GLM model, 5.2, has been released and offers significant speed improvements on Mac Studio hardware. This update allows for prefill speeds exceeding 100 tokens per second even with large context windows, and it also reduces memory usage. These enhancements enable users with 512GB Mac devices to run 4-bit quantized models with contexts larger than 100,000 tokens. AI

IMPACT Enhances performance for local LLM deployment on specific Apple hardware, enabling larger context windows for 4-bit quantized models.

RANK_REASON This is an update to a specific model version that improves performance on particular hardware, rather than a new frontier model release or significant industry-wide event.

    GLM 5.2 on Mac Studio Speedup PR

    <!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Just a heads up for the lucky few 512 gb mac owners: GLM 5.2 is a game changer because prefill speeds stay above 100 t/s at much higher context, and also take less space, so we can run 4 bit quants well above 100k context. See this PR by the oMLX…
