can it run

Can the Raspberry Pi 5 run qwen3 0.6B?

FULL

1.0 GB needed of 6 GB usable — headroom for context

~6GB usable · CPU (LPDDR4X SBC) · model file 0.6GB · 0.6B

~13–20 tok/s

computed roofline: 17.2 GB/s × 0.45–0.70 efficiency window / 0.6GB (Q4_K_M) — bands, never points. Small models (under ~4.5B) run BELOW these bands — kernel-launch overhead keeps them from saturating bandwidth (measured against community medians, 09-06).

Run qwen3 0.6B on instead
