DeepSeek v4.1 Flash runs locally at 27 tok/s decode with 256k context on an RTX 5090

QuixiAI reports running DeepSeek v4.1 Flash (1017) locally on an RTX 5090, hitting 27 tok/s decode and 161 tok/s prefill at 256k context. This follows casperhansen's claim of 15 tok/s on an RTX 3090 build ($2.5k), with a roadmap of building his own inference engine, an undetected browsing plugin, a new quantization framework, then having AI iterate over those steps. Local inference of frontier-class models is becoming genuinely viable on consumer hardware.
