Mac mini M6 · 24 GB
A compact current-generation Mac with 24 GB unified memory. Keep macOS, runtime, and KV-cache headroom separate from model weights.

The highest listed result may be a tight or offloaded fit. For daily use, prefer the first result marked Holgado and keep context modest.
MLX LM
Native Apple silicon inference, experimentation and fine-tuning. Only for Apple silicon. Use an MLX-converted model and tune KV cache size for long contexts. The bundled mlx_lm.server is an OpenAI-compatible HTTP endpoint (default 127.0.0.1:8080), but upstream warns it implements only basic security checks and is not recommended for production.
