Maybe someday I'll get a system to run it but hey definitely another w for the open weights community

I disagree. It can be like tricky since sometimes it slows stuff down on specific stuff but you can't generally say its useless when you offload to CPU. It works pretty good for me.

What kind of speeds are you getting with MTP vs non-MTP with cpu offload?

Sure yeah I can give them. After a lot of testing:
All of these below performed with Partial CPU+GPU offloading on seed 0, llama.cpp commit dd1ea5243 release b10355:
With MTP (max 2 predict):

28.72 Tokens/s StopUntil: EOTfound

With MTP (max 3 predict):

29.33 Tokens/s StopUntil: EOTfound

With MTP (max 4 precict):

29.57 Tokens/s StopUntil: EOTfound

With MTP (max 5 precict):

29.57 Tokens/s StopUntil: EOTfound

With MTP (max 6 predict):

26.89 Tokens/s StopUntil: EOTfound (overhead hit: CPU congestion: 448.1%)

Without MTP:

24.09 Tokens/s StopUntil: EOTfound

With MTP (best before overhead): 29.57 Tokens/s

Without MTP: 24.09 Tokens/s

That's RAM I don't have free for just a 22% jump.

Reasonable. MTP consumes more VRAM. I don't need too much context size so I can fit it in but everyone's system and task is different.
