Can the Jetson Thor T2000 run Nucleotide Transformer?

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

Nucleotide Transformer on the Jetson Thor T2000

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 121k 20-23.8 t/s ~1.5-1.7 (slow)
Q8 yes 159k 40-47.7 t/s ~2.9-3.5 (slow)
Q4 yes 175k 71.4-85.1 t/s ~5.2-6.2 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the Jetson Thor T2000 run Nucleotide Transformer?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~71.4-85.1 tok/s and fits up to 175k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~5.2-6.2 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 175k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
