alt Hacker Newsyeah, then theres prompt loading too.
but anyone who can fit QWEN-3.6 35B with a sustained ~30 token/s and ~100k context with cache could print money as a hardware vendor.

with llama-cpp and offloading non-active experts (from MOE architecture) to cpu RAM, you can easily run 50 tok / s QWEN-3.6 35B on 8-12 GB of VRAM. KV cache is a few GB, experts are ~3-5 GB (assuming q8 quant from Unsloth for example).
You can scroll through r/localllama and find tons of people getting useable speeds out of Qwen 35B.
