Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does Deeplm 108M need?
Deeplm 108M requires 0.2 GB of VRAM at BF16.
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 108M × 16 bits ÷ 8 = 0.2 GB
VRAM usage by quantization
BF160.2 GB- Can I run Deeplm 108M on a Mac?
Deeplm 108M requires at least 0.2 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 Deeplm 108M locally?
Yes — Deeplm 108M can run locally on consumer hardware. At BF16 quantization it needs 0.2 GB of VRAM. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
- How fast is Deeplm 108M?
At BF16, Deeplm 108M can reach ~12146 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI300X. On NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090: ~2730 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 ÷ 0.2 × 0.55 = ~12146 tok/s
Estimated speed at BF16 (0.2 GB)
~12146 tok/s~2730 tok/s~9078 tok/s~7509 tok/sReal-world results typically within ±20%. Speed depends on batch size, quantization kernel, and software stack.
- What's the download size of Deeplm 108M?
At BF16, the download is about 0.22 GB.
- Which GPUs can run Deeplm 108M?
35 consumer GPUs can run Deeplm 108M at BF16 (0.2 GB). Top options include AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, AMD Radeon RX 6800, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT. 35 GPUs have plenty of headroom for comfortable inference.
- Which devices can run Deeplm 108M?
33 devices with unified memory can run Deeplm 108M at BF16 (0.2 GB), including Mac Mini M4 (16 GB), Mac Mini M4 (32 GB), Mac Mini M4 Pro (24 GB), Mac Mini M4 Pro (48 GB). Apple Silicon Macs use unified memory shared between CPU and GPU, making them well-suited for local LLM inference.
