About these results
- The questions, settings and scoring are the same as on the Mac Studio. It measures in pieces of up to an hour between this Mac's other jobs, and goes on next time. Other models are unloaded first.
- Only the text page's models with a file of 90GB or less are measured (the memory, 96GB, less room for macOS and the rest).
- Speed and memory come first for every model; the knowledge and math questions follow. Until then they show as not measured.
- The Mac Studio (96GB) numbers appear on this page only. The comparisons and places on the text page use the Mac Studio (36GB) numbers alone.
