setup notes worth sharing for Gemma - mlxgarden - 09-14-2026
Spent some time on this today and wanted to compare notes.
I'm comparing two approaches here: keep it simple on mini PC, or squeeze more out of the stack and deal with the complexity.
Interested in tradeoffs more than fan loyalty.

Need a little more detail here. Is this local-only or are you routing anything externally?

Did a small comparison this afternoon. I couldn't reproduce the slowdown until I pushed context much higher. The surprise was that memory pressure showed up before throughput collapsed.

I tested this tonight. On mini PC with vLLM, I saw basically the same behavior. The surprise was that memory pressure showed up before throughput collapsed.

A couple things I'd check first. If you're on TensorRT-LLM, I'd confirm the version first and then reduce variables until the behavior is obvious. Once you know the plain path works, then add the faster path back in piece by piece.

Interesting, I hadn't tried that. I ended up in about the same place using Ollama. I got better results once I stopped chasing one metric and just looked at whether the workflow felt usable.

A couple things I'd check first. On A6000, the easiest win is often to back off the aggressive settings and see whether the problem survives. Not glamorous advice, but repeatable baselines save a lot of time.

I'd approach it in a boring order. Start by verifying the driver/runtime combo, then test with a smaller prompt, then look at tail latency. A lot of these threads end up being one bad config plus a pile of conclusions drawn from it.

If you post your exact settings, people here can probably narrow it down pretty fast.
