Local deployment is not zero-cost — it trades cloud bills for electricity, hardware, and time, and without a decent GPU for inference, running on CPU only will be very slow.

UnverifiedLocally runnable models reduce their size through parameter compression and quantization techniques and can run on ordinary consumer-grade CPUs or GPUs, but their inference speed and output quality are generally lower than those of large-parameter cloud models.76% similarVerifiedThe bottleneck in running large models locally lies in VRAM capacity and bandwidth; the CPU is not the critical factor74% similarVerifiedFor modern CPUs and GPUs, memory bandwidth is often the true bottleneck for inference speed rather than the compute units' arithmetic throughput, which is why quantization can bring speed improvements.71% similarUnverifiedThe bottleneck of traditional autoregressive decoding lies in memory bandwidth rather than compute capability, resulting in low GPU utilization.70% similar
