Cerebras is serving Qwen 3.8 27B at about 1,500 tokens/second on public pay-as-you-go.

64k context free tier, 128k paid, sitting next to gpt-oss-120b at about 3,000 tok/s. Those are the only two models on the public endpoints; everything else moved to Dedicated. At that throughput a 27B open model becomes usable for interactive agent loops where round-trip latency, not model quality, is the constraint. Cerebras
