A NAS with this chip runs models on its processor cores, so memory speed sets the pace: small models (about 1-4B) answer at a usable speed, bigger ones are slow. We plan around 5.2 GB for models, what is left after the NAS system and its storage services. Models run in a container (Docker) or the maker’s app store, and speeds assume the NAS isn’t busy with storage work.

| Bandwidth figure | 23.5 GB/s, estimated, see the note below |
| Note | One profile for every NAS built on this chip. Memory speed is an estimate from the chip’s supported memory in a typical NAS fitting; a unit with one memory module runs slower than one with two. Speed assumes the NAS is not busy with storage work. |
