Can the NVIDIA DGX Spark run Jamba 1.6 Mini?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Jamba 1.6 Mini on the NVIDIA DGX Spark
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 30k | 1.9-2.3 t/s | ~0.1-0.1 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 188k | 3.8-4.6 t/s | ~0.1-0.2 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 258k | 6.8-8.2 t/s | ~0.3-0.3 (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 Jamba 1.6 Mini?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~6.8-8.2 tok/s and fits up to 258k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~0.3-0.3 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 258k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
