Can I run GLM 4.7 Flash on Apple M4 Pro?

Tight fit

Tight fit fully in unified memory on your Apple M4 Pro at UD-Q4_K_XL, 8K context, about 36–49 tok/s. Weights 16.3 GB plus 0.41 GB of KV cache — 17.2 GB of 18.0 GB usable. Up to 16K context still fits.

# Then load quant UD-Q4_K_XL

Assumptions

Estimate, not a benchmark. Decode speed uses a memory-bandwidth model at 55–75% of peak.
KV cache is FP16. Engine overhead assumes llama.cpp (0.3 GB + 1% of the weights). Ollama is closer to 0.9 GB + 3%, LM Studio closer to 1 GB + 3%.
UD-Q4_K_XL size is the real GGUF file size from Hugging Face.
Unified memory uses 75% for the GPU by default, and always leaves about 5 GB for the OS.
Speed is quoted at 8K context, not at the maximum context that still fits.
