QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1724k 276.8-329.9 t/s ~10.1-12.1 (slow)
Q8 yes 1729k 553.6-659.8 t/s ~20.3-24.2 (slow)
Q4 yes 1732k 988.5-1178.1 t/s ~36.2-43.2 (slow)

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

FAQ

Can the NVIDIA DGX Spark run ERNIE-4.5-0.3B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~988.5-1178.1 tok/s and fits up to 1732k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~36.2-43.2 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1732k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
