A local-first memory layer has costs, including: write-ahead introduces latency; bounded forgetting may retire content you want; provenance does not equal correctness; local does not equal secure; local storage is not automatically correct, and cross-device and multi-person workflows are not suitable until synchronization is solved.

UnverifiedLong-horizon tasks require checkpoints, but storage and evaluation costs rise with checkpoint frequency; checkpointing only at the end minimizes storage but carries a high risk of catastrophic forgetting and cannot resume from intermediate states.75% similarUnverifiedLocal deployment requires a trade-off between saving money and saving time, as generation speed and VRAM usage become bottlenecks when running on low-end graphics cards.71% similarUnverifiedWhen planning memory for local models, headroom should be reserved and one should not plan right at the upper limit, otherwise increasing conversation length will trigger memory overflow or swapping.71% similarUnverifiedWhen migrating requests with a high cache hit rate to local models, the actual comparison benchmark should be the frontier model's cache read rate rather than the standard input price; ignoring this layer leads to flat spending but worse latency.70% similar
