Can the NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB run Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing")?

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

Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing") on the NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 147k 42-50.1 t/s ~0.9-1 (slow)
Q8 yes 211k 84.1-100.2 t/s ~1.7-2.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 239k 150.1-178.9 t/s ~3.1-3.7 (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 NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB run Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing")?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~150.1-178.9 tok/s and fits up to 239k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~3.1-3.7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 239k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
