FAQ

How much RAM do I need to run Muse Glimmer 30B on a phone?

At K_QUANT_17GB, Muse Glimmer 30B needs ~20.3GB of usable memory (weights + KV cache + runtime). In practice that means no current Android phone or no current iPhone — iOS lets a single app use less of its RAM than Android does.

How fast does Muse Glimmer 30B run on a flagship phone?

It doesn't fit on any of the 139 phones we track at K_QUANT_17GB — it needs ~20.3GB of usable memory.

Can an iPhone run Muse Glimmer 30B?

Not really: the best iPhone we track (iPhone 16 Pro Max) has ~5.2GB usable, but Muse Glimmer 30B needs 20.3GB at K_QUANT_17GB.

What is the best quantization of Muse Glimmer 30B for mobile?

K_QUANT_17GB (16.8GB download) is the size/quality sweet spot of the 2 quants available. Total memory needed is ~20.3GB once the KV cache and runtime are counted — the download size alone understates it.

How many phones can run Muse Glimmer 30B?

0 of the 139 phones we track have enough estimated usable memory at K_QUANT_17GB; 0 also reach our usable-speed threshold of 3 tokens/s, and 0 run smoothly. Memory-fit alone does not mean a good experience.

Which Macs can run Muse Glimmer 30B?

45 of the 54 exact Mac configurations we track have enough estimated working memory. Each Mac uses the recommended K_QUANT_17GB when it fits, or the largest smaller tracked quant that fits, and separates installed unified memory, the macOS reserve, and estimated speed.

What is Muse Glimmer 30B good for on a phone?

It's tagged for chat, coding, vision, reasoning. At 29.6B parameters, it prioritizes answer quality over speed — expect slower decoding.
