What to watch out for

• This model does not publish its full attention configuration, so the KV-cache share of these figures is inferred from its parameter count rather than computed exactly.

Beelink SER9 32 GB limitations

• Shares system memory with the iGPU, so the usable model budget is well below the nominal 32 GB.
• Memory bandwidth, not capacity, is the limit here — expect single-digit tokens/sec on large models.

Recommended setup

Ollama or llama.cpp (CUDA/ROCm) — vLLM if you need concurrent serving

How these numbers are calculated

• Memory need = quantized weights + KV cache at 8,192 tokens (f16) + 0.8 GB runtime overhead.
• 32 GB unified memory at 256 GB/s, shared between CPU and GPU.
• Throughput is a memory-bandwidth roofline estimate, not a measurement. It is labelled "estimated" everywhere it appears.
• KV cache is inferred from the parameter count because this model does not publish its full attention configuration.

FAQ
