+# DFlash Apple Silicon Pilot — Qwen3.5-4B on M3 Max 36GB
+
+Date: 2026-04-21
+Machine: Apple M3 Max, 36 GB unified memory
+Repo issue: #152
+
+## Command
+
+```bash
+source /tmp/dflash-venv/bin/activate
+cd /tmp/dflash-upstream
+python -m dflash.benchmark --backend mlx \
+    --model Qwen/Qwen3.5-4B \
+    --draft-model z-lab/Qwen3.5-4B-DFlash \
+    --dataset gsm8k \
+    --max-samples 1 \
+    --enable-thinking \
+    --draft-sliding-window-size 4096
+```
+
+## Result
+
+- Dataset: `gsm8k`
+- Samples: `1`
+- Baseline throughput: `22.35 tok/s`
+- DFlash throughput: `46.78 tok/s`
+- Decoding speedup: `2.09x`
+- Average acceptance length: `6.48`
+
+Acceptance length histogram:
+
+```text
+['0.3%', '11.1%', '12.7%', '10.4%', '11.7%', '7.6%', '7.0%', '3.8%', '5.1%', '6.3%', '2.8%', '3.8%', '2.2%', '1.9%', '0.9%', '2.5%', '9.8%']
+```
+
+## Caveats
+
+- This is a **pilot**, not a decision-grade benchmark.
+- Only `1` sample was run, so the throughput number is directional.
+- No apples-to-apples baseline against plain MLX or llama.cpp speculative decoding is included yet.
+- The planner still recommends trying `Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B + z-lab/Qwen3.5-9B-DFlash` on this machine for the more meaningful fit test.
+
+## Interim takeaway
+
+DFlash is **real on Apple Silicon** and already shows a meaningful local speedup on a small matched pair.
+A `2.09x` pilot speedup on `Qwen3.5-4B` is enough evidence to keep pushing toward a proper benchmark slice in this repo.

+    --draft-sliding-window-size 4096
+```
+
+## Outcome
+
+The benchmark did **not** complete successfully on this machine.
+
+### Failure signature
+
+```text
+libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type std::runtime_error:
+[METAL] Command buffer execution failed:
+Caused GPU Timeout Error (00000002:kIOGPUCommandBufferCallbackErrorTimeout)
+```
+
+Additional shutdown noise:
+
+```text
+bash: [11285: 1] tcsetattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device
+resource_tracker: There appear to be 1 leaked semaphore objects to clean up at shutdown
+```
+
+## Interpretation
+
+This is strong evidence that the `Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B + z-lab/Qwen3.5-9B-DFlash` pair is **not currently stable** on an M3 Max 36GB Mac under the upstream MLX benchmark path, at least with the default settings used here.
+
+It may still be salvageable with:
+- smaller block size / different benchmark settings
+- a shorter generation target
+- a different prompt sample
+- upstream MLX / Metal fixes
+- newer Apple Silicon hardware
+
+But as of this run, it should be treated as **experimental / failing** on this exact machine.
+
+## Recommendation
+
+For this Mac, the working local proof path is still:
+- `Qwen/Qwen3.5-4B`
+- `z-lab/Qwen3.5-4B-DFlash`
+
+Use the 4B pair for reproducible local validation while the 9B Metal timeout is investigated separately.

+# DFlash on Apple Silicon
+
+This repo now carries a **Gitea-first benchmark harness** for evaluating whether upstream **DFlash on MLX** is worth adding to the local Apple Silicon inference stack.
+
+## Why
+
+The headline `Kimi K2.6 + DFlash` benchmark was measured on `8x MI300X` with huge RAM and ROCm patches. That exact recipe is not a fit for a `36 GB` Apple Silicon Mac.
+
+What *is* relevant locally is the upstream `z-lab/dflash` MLX path, which can benchmark smaller matched target/draft pairs that fit on Apple Silicon.
+
+## Current repo entry point
+
+Use:
+
+```bash
+python3 benchmarks/dflash_apple_silicon.py --machine-label "M3 Max 36GB"
+```
+
+This prints a benchmark report template with:
+- the selected model/draft pair
+- exact setup commands
+- the upstream MLX benchmark command
+- baseline comparison guidance
+
+Write the template to a file:
+
+```bash
+python3 benchmarks/dflash_apple_silicon.py \
+  --machine-label "M3 Max 36GB" \
+  --output benchmarks/reports/dflash_m3max_36gb.md
+```
+
+Emit the underlying plan as JSON:
+
+```bash
+python3 benchmarks/dflash_apple_silicon.py --format json
+```
+
+## Selection logic
+
+Today the planner uses two upstream-supported MLX pairs:
+
+- `qwen35-9b`
+  - base: `Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B`
+  - draft: `z-lab/Qwen3.5-9B-DFlash`
+  - chosen for ~28 GB+ machines
+- `qwen35-4b`
+  - base: `Qwen/Qwen3.5-4B`
+  - draft: `z-lab/Qwen3.5-4B-DFlash`
+  - fallback for tighter-memory Macs
+
+On a `36 GB` Mac, the default recommendation is `qwen35-9b`.
+
+## Pilot result already landed
+
+A first live Apple Silicon run has already been captured in:
+
+- `benchmarks/reports/dflash_m3max_36gb_qwen35_4b_pilot.md`

+Pilot command:
+
+```bash
+python -m dflash.benchmark --backend mlx \
+    --model Qwen/Qwen3.5-4B \
+    --draft-model z-lab/Qwen3.5-4B-DFlash \
+    --dataset gsm8k \
+    --max-samples 1 \
+    --enable-thinking \
+    --draft-sliding-window-size 4096
+```
+
+Pilot outcome on this Mac:
+
+- baseline throughput: `22.35 tok/s`
+- DFlash throughput: `46.78 tok/s`
+- decoding speedup: `2.09x`
+
+Treat that as a **directional proof**, not a final decision benchmark. The next step is the fuller comparison slice against plain MLX or llama.cpp speculative decoding.
+
+## Known 9B failure on this machine
+
+A follow-up live run with:
+
+- `Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B`
+- `z-lab/Qwen3.5-9B-DFlash`
+
+failed on this same M3 Max 36GB Mac with:
+
+```text
+[METAL] Command buffer execution failed:
+Caused GPU Timeout Error (00000002:kIOGPUCommandBufferCallbackErrorTimeout)
+```
+
+That failure is recorded in:
+
+- `benchmarks/reports/dflash_m3max_36gb_qwen35_9b_timeout.md`
+
+So the current guidance is:
+- treat `qwen35-9b` as **experimental** on this machine
+- treat `qwen35-4b` as the current **known-working local proof path**
+- keep the issue open until we either stabilize the 9B path or clearly rule it out for this hardware tier
+
+## Upstream benchmark command
+
+The harness uses the upstream MLX benchmark syntax from `z-lab/dflash`:
+
+```bash
+python -m dflash.benchmark --backend mlx \
+    --model Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B \
+    --draft-model z-lab/Qwen3.5-9B-DFlash \
+    --dataset gsm8k \
+    --max-samples 128 \
+    --enable-thinking \
+    --draft-sliding-window-size 4096
+```
+
+## What remains
+
+This PR adds the **planner + report template** so the benchmark is reproducible from the repo.
+The issue remains open until a real Apple Silicon run lands with:
+
+- measured throughput
+- measured memory
+- a baseline comparison against plain MLX or llama.cpp speculative decoding
+- a recommendation on whether to operationalize DFlash locally
