Summary

User reports Qwen3.6-35B reading at 66 tok/s and writing at about 11 tok/s on a 2013 Mac Pro with two AMD FirePro D700 cards and 64 GB RAM. Setup is llama.cpp with Vulkan/MoltenVK on original macOS 12, measured with llama-bench. User warns that an earlier Metal path produced wrong results and looked about 9x faster than the correct run, so a tok/s figure without a correctness check is meaningless.
