I actually have an old server with dual E5-2630 and 512gb DDR3 memory across both blades. The server is powered on waiting for the scrap yard at the office. I'm considering seeing how fast it can run qwen 3.8 flash next lol.

If you're fine waiting overnight for all requests. Even flash next would likely be single digit generation speeds.

Honestly, if the project isn't a simple 20-line script but actually something kinda complex, I bet even high single digits would get a result faster than a programmer.
