I tested this tonight. I couldn't reproduce the slowdown until I pushed context much higher. The main thing that moved was latency, not quality. The logs were somehow calmer than I was.

A couple questions before I guess too hard. Is this local-only or are you routing anything externally?

Interesting, I hadn't tried that. The pattern around workstation thermals has been pretty similar for me. I got better results once I stopped chasing one metric and just looked at whether the workflow felt usable.

Did a small comparison this afternoon. The issue went away once I changed one setting and restarted the stack cleanly. I expected the model choice to matter more than it did.
