Can the Intel Gaudi 3 run RWKV-5 (Eagle) 7B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
RWKV-5 (Eagle) 7B on the Intel Gaudi 3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 772k | 142.7-177.1 t/s | ~1.5-1.9 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 830k | 285.4-354.3 t/s | ~3.1-3.8 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 855k | 509.6-632.6 t/s | ~5.5-6.8 (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 RWKV-5 (Eagle) 7B?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~509.6-632.6 tok/s and fits up to 855k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~5.5-6.8 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 855k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
