A user benchmarked the new MiniMax-M3.1-Flash via its hosted API: decode speeds ranged from 68.8 to 105.7 tok/s across runs, averaging close to 100 tok/s with no provider errors.

The verdict: slightly slower than DeepSeek-v4.1-flash, but the author notes that 100 tok/s is now effectively the minimum bar for any "flash"-class model. Screenshot shows think-token counts between 1,444 and 1,962 per run.
