Cache Fix Slashes Agent Latency by 290x
WesEklund · x · 2026-07-12
Open-source contributions have yielded clear performance gains: a user fixed the caching path, boosting warm latency for multi-turn agents by roughly 290x. This wasn't a new model, but rather fixing a long-standing engineering bottleneck.\n\nThe post also mentioned that mlx-vlm acceleration will speed up local agents on Apple Silicon, serving as a direct optimization for local inference and agentic workflows.
