On an 8GB GPU and 32GB laptop: ~5 words/s while running in Qubes via ollama with completely default settings (I don't have an install at the moment that'll tell me tokens/s). Not exactly a highly tuned setup, but it's a ballpark at least :) Tolerable and usable for some things, though thinking makes it take about a minute to reply in many cases. But getting this kind of thing to run on 8GB of VRAM is the main benefit of the mix-of-experts setup: it can do partial GPU loading and get a ton better throughput than a similarly-sized dense model (like 5-10x, sometimes more).
