Yes — the MacBook Pro M1 Max 64GB (64 GB LPDDR5) can run GLM-4.7-Flash. At Q4 with the default 8K context it needs ≈ 18.76 GB VRAM (weights 17.16 GB + KV cache 0.6 GB + 1 GB runtime overhead), which fits within 64 GB. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 84.8 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 needs ≈ 64.0 GB — does not fit on this card. Estimates come from memory-bandwidth math; rows tagged measured override estimates. Relative ranking is more reliable than absolute tok/s.

Fit & speed by quant and context

Quant	Context	VRAM needed	Fits?	tok/s (decode)
Q4	4K	18.46 GB	Yes	84.8 ± est.
Q4	8K default	18.76 GB	Yes	84.8 ± est.
Q4	32K	20.56 GB	Yes	84.8 ± est.
FP16	4K	63.7 GB	Yes	23.3 ± est.
FP16	8K default	64.0 GB	No	66.6 ± est.
FP16	32K	65.8 GB	No	63.0 ± est.

Fits = weights + KV(ctx) + 1 GB overhead ≤ 95% of VRAM. Measured anchors are context-agnostic; the fit verdict is recomputed per context. A missing tok/s means the model is far beyond this card (offload-only territory).
