CPU-MoE still helps with mmap. Should not overly hurt token-gen speed on the Mac since the CPU has access to most (though not all) of the unified memory bandwidth, which is the bottleneck.
For sure I was running on autopilot with that reply. Though in Q4 I would expect it to fit, as 24B-A4B Gemma model without CPU offloading got up to 18GB of VRAM usage
