A user successfully ran ROCm 10 with llama.cpp on dual AMD R9 7900 GPUs, loading a Qwen 27B quantized model. Benchmarks show text generation speeds of 37-50 t/s, spiking over 60 t/s for code. This represents a 5-10% performance increase over stock ROCm docker images. The post details the full setup, including Docker commands, library paths, and build flags.
