Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does NuExtract 1.5 need?
NuExtract 1.5 requires 8.8 GB of VRAM at BF16. Full 131K context adds up to 50.7 GB (59.5 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 3.8B × 16 bits ÷ 8 = 7.6 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 1.2 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 51.9 GB (at full 131K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
BF168.8 GBBF16 + full context59.5 GB- Can I run NuExtract 1.5 on a Mac?
NuExtract 1.5 requires at least 8.8 GB at BF16, which exceeds the unified memory of most consumer Macs. You would need a Mac Studio or Mac Pro with a high-memory configuration.
- Can I run NuExtract 1.5 locally?
Yes — NuExtract 1.5 can run locally on consumer hardware. At BF16 quantization it needs 8.8 GB of VRAM. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
- How fast is NuExtract 1.5?
At BF16, NuExtract 1.5 can reach ~333 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI300X. On NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090: ~75 tok/s. Speed depends mainly on GPU memory bandwidth. Real-world results typically within ±20%.
tok/s = (bandwidth GB/s ÷ model GB) × efficiency
Example: AMD Instinct MI300X → 5300 ÷ 8.8 × 0.55 = ~333 tok/s
