No agentic harness; I just prompted literally "svg owl" into LM Studio 0.4.21+2. macOS Tahoe 26.6.1, Mac mini M4 Pro (14 core, 20 graphics cores) 64GB RAM. (I put the machine config so the 17m12s of thinking has some context.) It got about 12.75 tok/s and used 21,769 tokens.
For comparison's sake, Qwen 3.6 35B A3B MLX, same prompt, same machine, thought for 1.59 seconds, used 2,398 tokens, and hit 80.83 tok/s. It actually output just a straight SVG file of an owl (not a bad owl either!), whereas Qwen 3.8 27B spent a zillion times longer gold-plating everything and output HTML+JS+SVG with interactive animation, sound, etc., etc.
