Can the NVIDIA H100 SXM5 80GB run CARP?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

CARP on the NVIDIA H100 SXM5 80GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1081k 1901.6-2266.3 t/s ~22.7-27.1 (slow)
Q8 yes 1090k 3803.3-4532.7 t/s ~45.4-54.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 1095k 6791.5-8094 t/s ~81.1-96.6 (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 H100 SXM5 80GB run CARP?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~6791.5-8094 tok/s and fits up to 1095k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~81.1-96.6 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1095k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
