KASA b65-vm: 1 x Intel Arc Pro B65 32 GB (PCIe passthrough, xe driver, Ubuntu 26.04 kernel 7.0) in a VM with 16 vCPU pinned to 8 cores (16 threads) of an AMD EPYC 7343 and 128 GiB. Engine: XeStrata xe0.1.40.2.2 (MistVVK/XeStrata, the Intel fork of Strata; LGPL-3.0) in the chriscorbell/intel-arc-pro-b70-qwen38-flash-next recipe image built from commit 6aad3506 (local image local/xestrata-qwen38:xe0.1.40.2.2, sha256:6f03dde70323). Weights: ISTA-DASLab/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GSQ-RCO-GGUF IQ3_S @ ed59f920; the GPU holds the dense layers and a cache of hot experts, the CPU computes the rest of the experts from system RAM at the same time. MTP speculative decoding (4 tokens), int8 KV cache. Settings: SPEC_MIN_P=0.62 VRAM_RESERVE_MIB=1024 MAX_CONTEXT=65536 CONVERSATION_CACHE_MIB=2048. Canonical reasoning-v1, lmx single-shot requests after one discarded warm-up. Measured requests: 53.6, 57, 59.2 tok/s; this is the median (tie to the earlier). Campaign ai/vm/b65-vm/2026-10-27-b65-vm-localmaxxing. Prompt/output samples were added from the lmx run file; engineTimingsRaw is XeStrata's own per-request log (decode tokens and tok/s, expert-cache hit rate), because lmx does not capture it for this engine.

CONCURRENCY TEST, NOT A SINGLE-USER RESULT. 12 requests sent at once (lmx --concurrency 12); 7.2 tok/s is the aggregate decode rate across all 12 streams, about 0.6 tok/s per stream, and the 45206 ms time to first token is under that load. KASA b65-vm: 1 x Intel Arc Pro B65 32 GB (PCIe passthrough, xe driver, Ubuntu 26.04 kernel 7.0) in a VM with 16 vCPU pinned to 8 cores (16 threads) of an AMD EPYC 7343 and 128 GiB. llama.cpp llama-server b11913 (image ghcr.io/ggml-org/llama.cpp), placement by llama.cpp's default --fit (1 GiB margin): the 96 GB model does not fit the 32 GB GPU, so llama.cpp's --fit kept the layers on the GPU and placed part of the MoE expert weights in system RAM on the CPU; the exact split is not logged at the default verbosity, 8 generation threads, 16 batch threads, flash attention on, 16 server slots of 4096 tokens each, context 65536. GGUF unsloth/DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731-GGUF @ fbbb5b93fb787c21338159b0af3318bb3f4d9768, file DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731-UD-Q2_K_XL-00001-of-00003.gguf. Each request: LocalMaxxing's canonical reasoning-v1 prompt with a unique nonce, 256 output tokens. One discarded warm-up batch, then 3 measured batches: 9.7, 7.2, 7.7 tok/s; this is the median. Not eligible for the Verified badge, which requires batch 1. Selection rule applied to every run in this round: the median of the 1 measured requests whose lmx promptTokens is a whole number; the others report a fractional median, which LocalMaxxing refuses.
KASA cuda-vm: 1 x NVIDIA RTX A6000 48 GB (PCIe passthrough, driver 615.71.10) in a VM with 16 vCPU pinned to 8 of the 16 cores (16 threads) of an AMD EPYC 7343 (another VM holds the other 8 cores) and 128 GiB. llama.cpp llama-server b11889 (CUDA image ghcr.io/ggml-org/llama.cpp), placement by llama.cpp's default --fit (1 GiB margin): the 120 GB model does not fit the 48 GB GPU, so llama.cpp's --fit kept the layers on the GPU and placed part of the MoE expert weights in system RAM on the CPU (loaded with -lm none, so the CPU part is in ordinary RAM, not memory-mapped); the exact split is not logged at the default verbosity; 47140 MiB of VRAM in use after load, 8 generation threads, 16 batch threads, flash attention on, 8 server slots of 4096 tokens each, context 32768. GGUF unsloth/Llama-4-Maverick-17B-128E-Instruct-GGUF @ 41032e5471dd6ea5b349062d978626215d6c5bba, file Llama-4-Maverick-17B-128E-Instruct-UD-IQ1_S-00001-of-00003.gguf. Canonical reasoning-v1, lmx single-shot requests after one discarded warm-up. Measured requests: 17.3, 15.6, 15.8 tok/s; this is the median (tie to the earlier). Prompt and output samples were added from the lmx run file, engineTimingsRaw from exact llama-server /metrics deltas around the request.
