There is a need for a streamlined, automated benchmarking tool specifically for Apple Silicon M-series chips to normalize performance metrics across different model quantizations. Developers should build a dashboard that correlates power draw, token-per-second, and thermal throttling to help users optimize local model deployments.

Suggested repo: silicon-bench

"Stop guessing your M-series performance—benchmark local LLM inference with real-time power monitoring."
