Can the NVIDIA H200 run Chameleon-34B?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Chameleon-34B on the NVIDIA H200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 230k | 51.5-61.4 t/s | ~0.4-0.5 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 359k | 103.1-122.8 t/s | ~0.9-1 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 416k | 184-219.3 t/s | ~1.5-1.8 (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 H200 run Chameleon-34B?โถ
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~184-219.3 tok/s and fits up to 416k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~1.5-1.8 tok/s.
How much context fits?โถ
At Q4, up to about 416k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
