Gemma 4 Benchmarks Beat Pricier GPU Stack

A Reddit post in r/LocalLLaMA says Gemma 4 26B MoE on dual Radeon 7900 XTX cards matched a task that previously needed dual RTX 5090s with Gemma 3 27B FP8. The benchmark reports 300 successful requests, zero failures, 20.18 requests per second, and a 4.65-second mean time to first token.

// ANALYSIS

Strong anecdotal signal that Gemma 4’s efficiency may materially improve the economics of local inference, but this is still a single-user benchmark rather than a controlled comparison.

–The headline claim is cost reduction: same workload, less expensive hardware, and lower apparent compute burden.
–The benchmark shows solid throughput and stability, with no failed requests across 300 runs.
–TTFT is still fairly high, so the win looks more like better price/performance than instant latency.
–Because this is a Reddit self-report, the result is useful for directionally assessing Gemma 4, not for making broad performance claims.
