User reports running DeepSeek v3.1 671B Terminus at 3.6 tokens/sec on a MacBook Pro with M5 Max 128GB and 8TB storage. Setup uses a heavily modified slipstream llama.cpp base that caches MoE experts to disk and calls them in as they change, with a -0.1 bias in the MTP router for in-RAM experts. A custom GGUF-derived format uses BF16 for fixed layers and INT4 for expert layers. The user says it is working extremely well and generating a somewhat usable 3.6 tokens/sec.
