I felt sorry for it and stopped it, 14min and the poor thing was just going around in circles.
I'm just looking at running some local llm on my m2 16GB mac and this was with the default settings for the qwen3.5 9b in LM Studio. Any pointers to get the best out of a M2?
Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.

Rules:
Rule 1 - No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.
Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.
Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.
Rule 4 - No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.
Take a look at dokploy if you want those features. https://dokploy.com/
It never gets mentioned but I've been running it for years (multinode cluster first, now single node) and am very happy.
You’re paying $4.5/mo for Dokploy for your self hosted setup??
No. It's been free for me ... Did they start charging for it?
EDIT: if I understand it correctly the pricing is if they host it on a server for you. Maybe I'm wrong, but its running for free on my server right now and I updated it last week and it doesn't ask for money.
Makes sense. SH through GitHub is free and self-managed. While anything else is paid based on their website’s pricing.
