Can the Intel Gaudi 3 run Yi-1.5-9B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Yi-1.5-9B on the Intel Gaudi 3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 752k | 121.5-150.8 t/s | ~1.3-1.6 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 820k | 243-301.7 t/s | ~2.6-3.3 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 849k | 434-538.7 t/s | ~4.7-5.8 (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 Yi-1.5-9B?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~434-538.7 tok/s and fits up to 849k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~4.7-5.8 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 849k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
