QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1009k 248.1-295.7 t/s ~4.9-5.8 (slow)
Q8 yes 1054k 496.2-591.3 t/s ~9.7-11.6 (slow)
Q4 yes 1075k 886-1055.9 t/s ~17.4-20.7 (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 SXM4 80GB run ProteinLM?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~886-1055.9 tok/s and fits up to 1075k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~17.4-20.7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1075k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
