Can the NVIDIA DGX Spark run RWKV-5 (Eagle) 7B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
RWKV-5 (Eagle) 7B on the NVIDIA DGX Spark
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 753k | 13.3-15.8 t/s | ~0.5-0.6 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 810k | 26.5-31.6 t/s | ~1-1.2 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 835k | 47.3-56.4 t/s | ~1.7-2.1 (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 RWKV-5 (Eagle) 7B?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~47.3-56.4 tok/s and fits up to 835k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~1.7-2.1 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 835k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
