- The page reports a Colibrì test on a 16 GB, graphics-card-free PC: a model loaded in 11 rather than 91 seconds.
Field notes
The setup flow says it checks processor, memory, graphics, and free space, then shows a suggested model’s download size before setup. The page reports a Colibrì test with Qwen 3.6 35B on a 16 GB Windows PC without a graphics card: loading took 11 rather than 91 seconds, with generation at 4.4 rather than 2.8 tokens per second. These are project-reported figures.
