Can the Intel Gaudi 3 run Qwen-VL?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Qwen-VL on the Intel Gaudi 3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 741k | 111.8-138.8 t/s | ~1.2-1.5 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 814k | 223.5-277.5 t/s | ~2.4-3 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 846k | 399.2-495.5 t/s | ~4.3-5.4 (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 Qwen-VL?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~399.2-495.5 tok/s and fits up to 846k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~4.3-5.4 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 846k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
