Contriever on the AMD Instinct MI455X
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 6038k | 56127.3-68600 t/s | ~114.5-140 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 6040k | 112254.5-137200 t/s | ~229.1-280 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 6041k | 200454.5-245000 t/s | ~409.1-500 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
