Independent benchmarks will determine whether AirLLM’s layer and expert streaming can run very large dense and sparse-MoE models on 4–12 GB GPUs with correct outputs and practically useful throughput.

Independent benchmarks will determine whether FreeToken can run 290B-plus sparse-MoE models on gaming PCs with practically useful correctness, throughput, and memory efficiency.

AlexGabbia claims the merged llama.cpp Maple 20B-A1B implementation runs DeepGrove's roughly 5–6 GB ternary GGUFs on CPU at about 88 generation tokens per second on an Apple M4, enabling GPU-free deployment while model quality remains uncertain.

NaiveAI claims its MIT-licensed Naive-N0.5-Flash — a 309B-A15.5B sparse MoE with native 1M-token context via hybrid SWA/DSA and no full-attention layers, served by its AI-optimized NaiveRT stack at up to 2,000 tokens/s — delivers frontier-comparable coding and AI-R&D capability at open weights; independent benchmarking and self-hosted adoption would establish it as a credible local coding model.
