Can the NVIDIA A100 SXM4 80GB run Tongyi DeepResearch?

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

Tongyi DeepResearch on the NVIDIA A100 SXM4 80GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 42k 24.4-29.1 t/s ~0.5-0.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 159k 48.8-58.2 t/s ~1-1.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 210k 87.1-103.9 t/s ~1.7-2 (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 Tongyi DeepResearch?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~87.1-103.9 tok/s and fits up to 210k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~1.7-2 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 210k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
