200+ tok/s on local infra? That's crazy. How much did you pay for your hardware?

I find these local infra costs crazy heavy duty. I always assume these folks are getting their values worth or that infra is serving multiple people's requests at and justifying the cost. Like I once thought of buying a 48-64 GB RAM laptop (not even clsoe to what these models need) and I realised the equivalent cost will serve me for years of ≈ $30 per month API/sub access. So I assume the usage is also heavy duty, or if nothing then for privacy and safety and then I guess the price, if one can pay, will totally be worth it.

You just need to imagine someone making big bucks in tech + being a little bit money ignorant, having a big house and a nice basement and cheap energy prices.

Than it just makes sense that they already do this.

But to be fair, if i move, enough space for battery, solar and a basement which can take proper ML hardware + heat exchanger, is in my future vision.

The advantage is no more 5-hours or weekly session limit anymore. Also no chance your proprietary code ends up in someone repo.

I still think only privacy is relevant to run on your own infra, never cost.

near.ai tries to solve this

That is literally my next sentence :D

That is not a concern with pay-as-you-go models like DeepSeek. It is stupid inexpensive.

If the only variable is money, local models will never make any sense at these prices of infra/subscriptions.

For a lot of people, there are other variables though.

This has to be a distilled model? I don't see any route to 200 tokens/s without serious datacenter hardware

you mean quantized? it’s only got 16B active parameters so it can be pretty fast at decode.

sorry, yes, quantised
