QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 640k 766.6-937 t/s ~35.5-43.4 (slow)
Q8 yes 646k 1533.3-1874 t/s ~71-86.8 (slow)
Q4 yes 648k 2738-3346.5 t/s ~126.8-154.9 (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.

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~2738-3346.5 tok/s and fits up to 648k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~126.8-154.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 648k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
