Sorry for the OT response, I was curious about this comment[0] you made a while back. How did you measure memory transfer speed?

I used «powermetrics» bundled with macOS with «bandwidth» as one of the samplers (--samplers / -s set to «cpu_power,gpu_power,thermal,bandwidth»).

Unfortunately, Apple has taken out the «bandwidth» sampler from «powermetrics», and it is no longer possible to measure the memory bandwidth as easily.
