Apple’s ‘LLM in a Flash’ technique enables local Qwen 397B MoE model on MacBook Pro ⭐️ 8.0/10
Dan Woods successfully ran the Qwen3.5-397B-A17B model locally on a 48GB MacBook Pro M3 Max, achieving over 5.5 tokens/second by applying Apple’s ‘LLM in a Flash’ memory optimization techniques to stream expert weights from SSD. He used an autoresearch pattern with Claude Code to generate MLX Objective-C and Metal code after running 90 experiments. This demonstrates that extremely large language models can run efficiently on consumer hardware with limited memory, potentially democratizing access to state-of-the-art AI capabilities without requiring expensive cloud infrastructure. The approach specifically benefits Mixture-of-Experts models, which are becoming increasingly important in the AI landscape due to their efficiency advantages. The implementation quantizes expert weights to 2-bit while keeping non-expert components like embedding tables at original precision, resulting in 5.5GB of resident memory usage. The setup reduced the number of active experts per token from Qwen’s usual 10 to 4, with the biggest quality drop occurring at 3 experts, though the exact quality impact remains unclear.
rss · Simon Willison · Mar 18, 23:56
Background: Apple’s ‘LLM in a Flash’ paper (arXiv:2312.11514) addresses running LLMs that exceed available DRAM capacity by storing parameters in flash memory and loading them on demand, optimizing data transfer volume and reading patterns. Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models like Qwen3.5-397B-A17B activate only a subset of ‘expert’ weights per token, making them suitable for SSD streaming. The technique involves constructing an inference cost model that accounts for flash memory characteristics to minimize data transfers and maximize contiguous reads.

BPF Integration with io_uring Reduces Kernel-User Space Switching Overhead ⭐️ 8.0/10
A patch set from Pavel Begunkov has been accepted, integrating BPF with io_uring to allow BPF programs to enqueue additional work in response to completion events, minimizing kernel-user space switching overhead. This enables programmers to extend the io_uring event loop with BPF programs that can process completions and queue subsequent work without returning to user space. This integration significantly reduces latency and improves performance for high-throughput I/O applications by eliminating unnecessary context switches between kernel and user space. It represents an important advancement in Linux kernel optimization, enabling more complex asynchronous I/O workflows while maintaining safety through BPF’s sandboxed execution environment. The patch introduces new kfuncs including bpf_io_uring_submit_sqes() to process submission queue entries and bpf_io_uring_get_region() to access queue contents. BPF programs can return IOU_LOOP_CONTINUE to keep running with configurable delays or IOU_LOOP_STOP to return to user space, effectively bypassing BPF’s single-execution operation limits through looping.
rss · LWN.net · Mar 18, 14:57
Background: io_uring is a Linux kernel interface for asynchronous I/O that uses two shared ring buffers: a submission queue for sending requests to the kernel and a completion queue for results. BPF (Berkeley Packet Filter) is a Linux kernel technology that allows running sandboxed programs in the kernel space, originally for packet filtering but now extended to various kernel subsystems. The overhead of kernel-user space switching occurs when the kernel must switch to user space to process completion requests and queue subsequent work, even with shared memory reducing communication overhead.
