UPDATE: Qwen3.8-Flash-Next on 2x3090 + DDR4 (Part 2): 25-29 -> 37-41 t/s decode (UD-Q4_K_XL + expert cache + MTP), plus a branch you can build
"Local maxxing at its finest: turning 2016 Xeons into an inference powerhouse."
Explain Like I'm Normal
A developer achieved a 2x speedup on local Qwen inference by combining expert caching with Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) on consumer hardware. The setup manages to offload massive expert layers to system RAM while maintaining high decode speeds, proving that optimization beats raw compute for local enthusiasts.
