Can the Instinct MI440X run ESM2-15B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
ESM2-15B on the Instinct MI440X
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1396k | 411.6-503.1 t/s | ~0.8-1 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1453k | 823.2-1006.1 t/s | ~1.7-2.1 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1478k | 1470-1796.7 t/s | ~3-3.7 (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.
