What it does

omlx provides fast LLM inference for Apple Silicon projects, enabling continuous batching and SSD caching for efficient machine learning model deployment

When to use it
  • When building Apple Silicon-based applications that require low-latency LLM inference
  • When developing macOS or iOS apps that rely on large language models
  • When optimizing machine learning workflows for Apple devices
Ready-to-paste prompt
python app.py --model gpt2 --batch-size 16 --ssd-cache /path/to/ssd
Heads up: Ensure you have Python 3.9 or later installed, as omlx relies on newer Python features for optimal performance
