can it run

Can the Mac mini M4 Pro (64GB) run llava 7B?

YES

Comfortably. 64GB of memory against a 6GB working set leaves headroom for context, the OS, and anything else you're running.

~32–46 tok/s

weights 4.7GB + KV cache 2GB at 4k context vs ~62GB usable → full. 6.7 GB needed of 62 GB usable — headroom for context

computed roofline: 273 GB/s × 0.55–0.80 efficiency window / 4.7GB (Q4_K_M) — bands, never points.
