  • Chart showing best observed inference of TinyLlama 1.1B running on the Intel Ultra 7 265KF, by model, with tokens per second on the y axis and number of threads on the x axis. There's a line for each model. Each line shows stead increases in tokens per second up to 8 threads, after which they level off. There are a couple of dips - mainly at 9 threads and 20 threads, and a small number of models seem to keep increasing, if slightly, beyond 8 threads. But this general pattern of increase until 8 and then levelling of is broadly consistent.

    I know what you were thinking when you woke up this morning: “How many tokens per second can you get with a 2.5 year old CPU running inference on a 3 year old 1.1B model?” So I wrote this post for you. Here are some benchmarks of the Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF alongside 5600Mhz […]
