FP16 yes 200k 1501.7-1789.7 t/s ~208.6-248.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 201k 3003.4-3579.4 t/s ~417.1-497.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 201k 5363.3-6391.8 t/s ~744.9-887.8 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB run Swallow?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~5363.3-6391.8 tok/s and fits up to 201k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~744.9-887.8 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 201k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
