Can the NVIDIA B200 run Llama-2-Chinese 13B?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Llama-2-Chinese 13B on the NVIDIA B200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 910k | 224.6-267.7 t/s | ~1.1-1.3 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 990k | 449.2-535.4 t/s | ~2.2-2.7 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1025k | 802.2-956 t/s | ~4-4.8 (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 NVIDIA B200 run Llama-2-Chinese 13B?โถ
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~802.2-956 tok/s and fits up to 1025k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~4-4.8 tok/s.
How much context fits?โถ
At Q4, up to about 1025k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
