Antirez on Mac Studio M5 Ultra: Compute/bandwidth insufficient for K3 tasks
antirez · x · 2026-08-26
Redis creator Antirez commented on the lack of a 1TB option in the new Mac Studio M5 Ultra, suggesting it's a design choice reflecting its limits rather than a flaw, as its compute and bandwidth are insufficient for K3-level tasks. He proposed that its value should be judged by how fast it can run GLM 5.3 and how many parallel sessions it can handle with optimal batching.
