Running a 2.78T-parameter Kimi K3 inference on a single CPU in 8.24 GB of RAM
gekobraa · x · 2026-09-10
The OSPs project claims to run a 2.78-trillion-parameter Kimi K3 inference on a single CPU using just 8.24 GB of RAM — no GPU, no BLAS, no framework. If verified, this showcases extreme memory-mapped/quantized inference, though the post offers no throughput or latency details.
