03VRAM by quantisation

ASSESSMENT

Peak VRAM for serving this model, computed by lib/deployment/hardware.ts from weights + KV cache + 15% runtime overhead. Inputs: 27.8B parameters, 8,192 tokens of context (assumed — none fetched yet), 4 concurrent requests (assumed).

Decimal GB (10⁹ bytes), matching how GPU memory is advertised.
QuantisationWeightsTotal
bf16bf16 is two bytes per weight, the same arithmetic as fp16.55.56 GB73.78 GB
fp827.78 GB41.83 GB
int827.78 GB41.83 GB
int413.89 GB25.85 GB
q4_k_mSized as 4-bit weights. Q4_K_M averages nearer 4.5 bits in practice, so read this as a floor.13.89 GB25.85 GB

What this estimate assumes

  • Weights: 27.8B parameters × 2 bytes per parameter (fp16) = 55.56 GB.
  • No model configuration was supplied, so the KV cache uses the size heuristic for this band: 0.262 MB per token, from Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct (64 × 8 × 128).
  • KV cache: 0.262 MB per token × 8,192 tokens of context × 4 concurrent requests = 8.59 GB, sized for every user holding a full context at once.
  • Overhead: 15% of weights plus KV cache for the runtime, activations and memory fragmentation = 9.62 GB.
  • GB means 10⁹ bytes, matching how GPU memory is advertised.
  • KV cache held at fp16 (2 bytes per element); quantising weights does not by itself quantise the cache.
  • Peak figure, not average: prefix caching and paged attention usually keep real usage lower, while speculative decoding, CUDA graphs and a second resident model push it higher.
  • "Concurrent" counts requests generated at the same instant, not people: 4 simultaneous requests is the worst case this estimate is built on — measure yours before buying.
