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

nesso 0.4B Agentic on the NVIDIA L40S 48GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 639k 788.4-939.6 t/s ~36.5-43.5 (slow)
Q8 yes 645k 1576.8-1879.2 t/s ~73-87 (slow)
Q4 yes 648k 2815.7-3355.7 t/s ~130.4-155.4 (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 L40S 48GB run nesso 0.4B Agentic?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~2815.7-3355.7 tok/s and fits up to 648k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~130.4-155.4 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 648k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
