DeepSeek V4.1-Flash hands-on: 350 t/s decoding speed but still very experimental
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-09-08
- Early tester ivanfioravanti reports DeepSeek V4.1-Flash averages 350 tokens/s decoding, impressively fast, though its architecture remains unclear.
- Issues so far: frequent failures under heavy load, excessive thinking, failing file edits, and 4M tokens without finishing a Frogger game.
- Counterpoint: teortaxesTex says the model sees images fine and can fix its own output if asked—play with it, but it's clearly early-stage.
