Can the Intel Gaudi 3 run CLIP (ViT L/14@336px)?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
CLIP (ViT L/14@336px) on the Intel Gaudi 3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1763k | 2900-3600 t/s | ~31.4-38.9 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1768k | 5800-7200 t/s | ~62.7-77.8 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1771k | 10357.1-12857.1 t/s | ~112-139 (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 CLIP (ViT L/14@336px)?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~10357.1-12857.1 tok/s and fits up to 1771k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~112-139 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 1771k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
