Can the Intel Arc Pro B50 run GLIDE?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

GLIDE on the Intel Arc Pro B50

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 95k 18.6-23 t/s ~3.3-4.1 (slow)
Q8 yes 148k 37.1-46.1 t/s ~6.6-8.2 (slow)
Q4 yes 172k 66.3-82.3 t/s ~11.8-14.7 (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.

FAQ

Can the Intel Arc Pro B50 run GLIDE?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~66.3-82.3 tok/s and fits up to 172k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~11.8-14.7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 172k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
