Can Mac Studio M2 Max 64 GB run GLM-4.6V-Flash (10B)?

64 GB unified · 400 GB/s memory bandwidth · GLM-4.6V-Flash (10B) has 10.3B parameters.

Short answer

Yes, excellent for chat and acceptable or better for every workload we test.

Best quantization for chat: 5-bit (6.7 GB of weights) on LM Studio. Generation: 35–45 tok/s, leaving about 46 GB free for your other apps.

How it rates for each workload

Same model and machine, different jobs. Agents and long documents send far bigger prompts than chat, so they need much more speed and memory.

Get it running

Copy-paste commands for the 6-bit build with a 64K context. Ollama and llama.cpp download the file straight from Hugging Face.

ollama run hf.co/unsloth/GLM-4.6V-Flash-GGUF:Q6_K

Downloads 8.27 GB (Q6_K). Ollama's default context is small: set OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH=65536 before `ollama serve` for long prompts.
