Can the NVIDIA DGX Spark run nekomata-14b?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
nekomata-14b on the NVIDIA DGX Spark
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 521k | 7-8.4 t/s | ~0.3-0.3 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 607k | 14-16.7 t/s | ~0.5-0.6 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 645k | 25.1-29.9 t/s | ~0.9-1.1 (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 nekomata-14b?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~25.1-29.9 tok/s and fits up to 645k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~0.9-1.1 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 645k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
