Can the NVIDIA DGX Spark run ERNIE-Doc (247M)?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
ERNIE-Doc (247M) on the NVIDIA DGX Spark
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1727k | 403.4-480.8 t/s | ~14.8-17.6 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1731k | 806.8-961.6 t/s | ~29.6-35.2 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1733k | 1440.8-1717.1 t/s | ~52.8-62.9 (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-Doc (247M)?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~1440.8-1717.1 tok/s and fits up to 1733k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~52.8-62.9 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 1733k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
