Can the NVIDIA Jetson T3000 run Qwen2.5 Instruct (7B)?

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

Qwen2.5 Instruct (7B) on the NVIDIA Jetson T3000

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 92k 13.1-15.6 t/s ~0.5-0.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 150k 26.2-31.2 t/s ~1-1.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 176k 46.8-55.7 t/s ~1.7-2 (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 Jetson T3000 run Qwen2.5 Instruct (7B)?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~46.8-55.7 tok/s and fits up to 176k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~1.7-2 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 176k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
