Can the Intel Gaudi 3 run OpenELM-1.1B?

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

OpenELM-1.1B on the Intel Gaudi 3

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1741k 993.5-1233.3 t/s ~10.7-13.3 (slow)
Q8 yes 1758k 1987-2466.7 t/s ~21.5-26.7 (slow)
Q4 yes 1765k 3548.3-4404.8 t/s ~38.4-47.6 (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 Gaudi 3 run OpenELM-1.1B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~3548.3-4404.8 tok/s and fits up to 1765k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~38.4-47.6 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1765k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
