Speculative decoding also works on Mac, 64G is more than what I have, m5 max should handle up to ~40 t/s with optimized setup (and with a lot of vram you can get great wins on concurrency – that harness can take advantage of for single user task as well), but agree memory bandwidth in mac or spark is still too slow, next gen for both will be great hardware to have for sure.
