Can the NVIDIA H200 run XLM-RoBERTa?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
XLM-RoBERTa on the NVIDIA H200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1940k | 3185.5-3796.4 t/s | ~26.5-31.6 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1948k | 6370.9-7592.7 t/s | ~53.1-63.3 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1952k | 11376.6-13558.4 t/s | ~94.8-113 (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 XLM-RoBERTa?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~11376.6-13558.4 tok/s and fits up to 1952k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~94.8-113 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 1952k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
