Can the Intel Arc Pro B60 run DistilProtBert?

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

DistilProtBert on the Intel Arc Pro B60

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 307k 575-713.7 t/s ~50.4-62.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 311k 1149.9-1427.5 t/s ~100.9-125.2 (slow)
Q4 yes 312k 2053.4-2549.1 t/s ~180.1-223.6 (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 B60 run DistilProtBert?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~2053.4-2549.1 tok/s and fits up to 312k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~180.1-223.6 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 312k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
