I'd guess that the unified memory on the Mac makes the performance so good.
- musicale 4y agoM1 Max does seem to have good memory bandwidth, which probably helps. If they were running code on the GPU then the unified memory architecture might help as well. Interesting that that the Mac benchmark results are from Docker, i.e. running on a virtualized Linux kernel.
- geerlingguy 4y agoNewer versions of Docker for Mac, running with ARM64 Linux instances, lets you pass through all 10 CPU cores (and in my case 32GB of RAM), and doesn't impose much performance penalty really.
