Reported by the source; GPU count, offloading and concurrent requests can change these figures. Prompt-processing speed is shown only when the source reports it; generation speed cannot tell us time to first token. Check the full setup before comparing.

User reports the AtomicChat build of Qwen3.8-Flash-Next running a full 256K context on 96 GB RAM and 40 GB VRAM, at 22 t/s. The build splits the n-gram table to SSD. The user previously ran unsloth quants, which crashed at around 60K context and were slower at 12-14 t/s. The AtomicChat build handles a 217K token conversation without crashing. Prefill takes about 18 minutes for 220K context.

User compares Flash-Next against a dense 27B model. Flash-Next is faster and mechanically flawless, with zero failures on strict JSON, injection resistance and SLAs, and wins the high-reasoning spatial and code-gen tier with better failure modes. The dense 27B still wins sustained multi-step symbolic work such as bug-fixing, math proofs and abstract puzzles. On that symbolic work Flash-Next shows a new failure shape: it promises the deliverable, declares "done", and outputs nothing. Both models use the same reasoning_effort knob with radically different semantics, so Flash-Next is not a drop-in replacement but a conditional promotion.

User reports full BF16 at 330 GiB with no quantization, running stock llama.cpp master b10680 over RPC on a LAN across 4 devices on 3 boxes: 94 GiB on the RTX PRO, 40 on the Mac's Metal, 30 on the 5090, plus the 5090's DDR5 as a 4th RPC device. About 39 GiB still spills to local RTX PRO RAM, as the device pool cannot hold all 234 GiB of non-PLE weights. The user notes a reported single 2×3090 box at 32 t/s on this model at UD-Q4_K_XL, which is 1.5× better byte-for-byte than what the user is achieving, so it is not purely a bytes problem. The next step is GGML_SCHED_DEBUG=2 plus GGML_RPC_STATS to see how much of the 155 ms token is RPC round-trips versus actual work.

User benchmarks Qwen3.8 Flash Next across VRAM tiers from 8 GB to 96 GB with llama.cpp b10666. CPU-only decode reaches 8.34 tok/s and full 96 GB decode reaches 109.07 tok/s. At 245K context, decode ranges from 14.89 tok/s on 24 GB to 21.61 tok/s on 96 GB. The model activates 6B params per token (MoE). RAM-resident loading gives 1.87x prefill versus mmap. Non-unified KV reaches 92.0 tok/s total at concurrency 16. A PLE table on CUDA causes a 55.6x decode slowdown, from 108.5 to 1.95 tok/s.
