MLX.fast opens a public competition to make Laguna XS 2.1 run faster on consumer Macs
gajesh · x · 2026-07-28
A repost highlighting the same MLX.fast competition: the goal is to make Laguna XS 2.1 faster on consumer Macs.
- The initiative invites public collaboration on MLX inference optimizations.
- It builds on the same Laguna XS 2.1 architecture that the team says already outperforms larger models at a much smaller size.
- The practical angle is making strong models run better on consumer hardware.
