Can the Intel Gaudi 3 run ALBERT?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
ALBERT on the Intel Gaudi 3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1773k | 59611.1-74000 t/s | ~644.4-800 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1774k | 119222.2-148000 t/s | ~1288.9-1600 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1774k | 212896.8-264285.7 t/s | ~2301.6-2857.1 (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 Gaudi 3 run ALBERT?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~212896.8-264285.7 tok/s and fits up to 1774k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~2301.6-2857.1 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 1774k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
