Start with a representative non-sensitive task. Record the exact runtime, quantization, context, load time, generation speed, memory use and answer quality.

Evidence and limits

Published context: 128K published max. The source establishes specifications; it does not guarantee that maximum context fits at the LocalLens minimum RAM floor.
