Too big for this Mac

Its smallest size needs 183 GB of memory, more than M4 · 16 GB can give it.

Ratings

4.6 out of 5, across people's blind votes on its answers.

LM Arena ratings of October 28, 2026 (CC BY 4.0): people vote between two answers without knowing which model wrote which. The bar ends at 1488, the best any open model has. The Arena tests the full model; a small size on a Mac answers a little worse.

GLM 5 runs well from a Mac with an M3 Ultra and 256 GB of memory. 4 of 59 Mac configurations run it well. It is a re-tune or merge made by someone other than the original model's maker, so its ratings, where it has any, are its own.

The largest size, of those that keep three bits a weight or more, whose memory at an 8K chat is under 92% of the card's; the rest is the desktop's. Estimated from the files, the same way as for a Mac; speed on a PC is not estimated yet. A size that doesn't fit the card still runs, slower, with part of it in ordinary memory.

Writes is words a second, estimated from the Mac's memory speed and the model's size; how, and how wrong.

Badge for the model card

Shows on GLM 5's Hugging Face card which Macs run it well, linked to this page. It updates every morning.

Runs on Mac badge

Files, downloads and likes read from Hugging Face on November 5, 2026 and refreshed every morning. Memory and speed are estimates until someone running Outmake measures this model on that Mac.

Every model is judged for this Mac. Both are under About This Mac, in the Apple menu.
