Every few weeks someone downloads the GGUF build and the MLX build of the same model, runs both, screenshots the tokens-per-second counter, and posts it as proof that one format wins. The replies split down the middle. Half the thread says MLX is obviously faster, the other half says the test was rigged. They are both right, which is the problem. The number on the screen is real and it is also not the number you actually wait for. And the....

As I write this, we’re about 7 sixteenths through 2026, and it’s about 14 sixteenths through the day. For the sixteenth issue of the Taper online magazine, I split time into sixteenths to think about its passage in a different way. The code, which had to be under 2048 bytes, isn’t terribly complex. It does some date math and uses a Go server for minification. If you want, here’s the unminified source code . Go check out all the ..

Compilers, especially method just-in-time compilers, operate on one function at a time.
