Мини‑ПК на Strix Halo под параллельной нагрузкой: 236 tok/s на 32 одновременных запросах и три ошибки

Один Beelink GTR9 Pro на Ryzen AI Max+ 395 выдал 236 tok/s суммарной генерации на 32 одновременных запросах в коротких прогонах и удержал в среднем 226 tok/s за 30 минут непрерывной нагрузки без тротлинга.
