Apple Silicon is among the most widely used platforms for local LLM inference, yet nearly all inference optimizations are designed and validated on server-class NVIDIA GPUs under batched serving workloads. Which optimizations retain their benefits when moved to Apple Silicon, and what determines their applicability? We evaluate four optimization families: KV-cache pruning, speculative decoding, ported GPU kernels, and post-training quantization. Experiments span four Apple machines under a common single-request decode workload, with matched RTX 4090 comparisons where possible. KV-cache pruning
