What commenters are saying

Commenters widely praised the hacker spirit behind the project. Two camps emerged: those who find 0.05-0.1 tok/s usable for overnight batch tasks, and those who see it as too slow for interactive use. Multiple commenters suggested ticket-style interfaces or batch task queues as better fits for slow local inference. Some raised SSD wear concerns, while others noted read-only access minimizes that risk. Several offered to test on higher-end hardware, and antirez was credited with similar work on a GLM 5.2 branch in ds4.
