Human Fingers Hit ~2 t/s: Dev Builds a Tokenizer-Based Human TPS Counter
HomoAgens1 · reddit · 2026-09-28
A Redditor tired of benchmarking local LLM throughput built a tongue-in-cheek web page that measures human finger token generation speed using real tokenizers. His best: about 2 t/s—faster than a 70B model on a laptop CPU, but roughly 76x slower than an 8B on a 4090. Results are shareable, a fun distraction while waiting for your LLM.
