Speeds are estimates for a single request — one conversation at a time — calculated from memory bandwidth, model size and quantisation. Real throughput varies with the inference runtime and its version. Figures published by hardware vendors measure many simultaneous requests and are much higher.

The extremes

The ten fastest GPUs that run Taiyi-Stable Diffusion

Ranked by estimated tokens per second, newest card first where speeds tie. Because generation is bound by memory bandwidth, this ordering follows bandwidth rather than any gaming benchmark.

Fastest

3,388 tok/s

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion reaches a parameter count of 1B. That is small enough that hardware is rarely the obstacle, including on cards several years old. The number of cards we track that can run it: 818.

The entry point is Tesla C1080, with a memory capacity of 4 GB, running it at a compression of Q8_0 and producing around 36.9 tokens per second.

The fastest we calculate for it is B200, generating roughly 3,388 tokens per second on the strength of a memory bandwidth of 8,000 GB/s.

About this model

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion was published by IDEA CCNL, in the country recorded as China, during October 2022. The category the publisher falls under is academia.

It works in the domain of Image generation, and is recorded as performing the task of image generation, Text-to-image.

Rather than being trained from scratch, it is derived from Stable Diffusion (LDM-KL-8-G). That is the usual way a specialised model is produced.

The weights are published, so it can be downloaded and run on your own hardware indefinitely, offline, with no account attached.

How fast it runs, and why

Across every card that can run it, the middle of the range sits at 95.1 tokens per second. Clearing the ten tokens per second that roughly matches reading speed: 806 of them.

Every weight participates in every token here, so bandwidth is the whole story: the ranking below is effectively a ranking of memory throughput.

Without the attention layout on record, the memory column is an approximation. It is close enough to choose hardware by, and least reliable at long context.

How it was trained

Producing it required arithmetic totalling around 5.1 × 10²² FLOP, on hardware recorded as NVIDIA A100. That figure measures what producing the model cost, and has no bearing on how fast it answers.

Step by step

How to choose a GPU for Taiyi-Stable Diffusion

The table above has already assessed every card we hold specifications for against this model. Getting to your answer takes six steps.

01

Start from the memory column

Start from what it actually needs, which is the requirement of Taiyi-Stable Diffusion, needing around 1.8 GB at a compression of Q8_0. That figure, not the headline performance of a card, is what decides whether it runs.
02

Match the context to your actual use

Set the context to what you will actually use. The cache grows with the conversation, and it is the usual reason a card that seemed fine stops fitting Taiyi-Stable Diffusion.
03

Choose how far you will compress it

Compression is what makes a model fit smaller cards, at some cost in accuracy, reaching a compression of Q8_0 on the smallest card that fits. Setting a minimum quality drops the cards that only manage it by squeezing further than you would want, and holds the comparison at one level.
04

Sort by speed

The speed ordering is effectively an ordering by memory bandwidth, for Taiyi-Stable Diffusion. It will not match a gaming ordering, because generation is bound by memory bandwidth. The card topping the list is B200, at 3,388 tok/s.
05

Read the fit column last

The fit column separates cards that just manage it from those with room to spare, in the case of Taiyi-Stable Diffusion. Comfortable means you can grow the context later. That difference matters more than a few tokens per second, so buy for comfortable if you expect to.
06

See what else that card runs

Each card page repeats this sweep for every model we hold, answering what else the hardware is good for beyond Taiyi-Stable Diffusion.

Answers

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion — common questions

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— where can I download it?

The weights are published, though we do not hold a repository link for it. This site calculates hardware requirements rather than hosting model files.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— how much compute was used to train it?

Training consumed around 5.1 × 10²² FLOP, on hardware recorded as NVIDIA A100. That measures what producing the model cost and says nothing about how quickly it answers once trained — inference speed comes from memory bandwidth, not from the training budget.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— can I run it if it does not fit in my GPU?

Partly. Layers that do not fit sit in system memory and run at a fraction of the speed, so a mostly-offloaded model is rarely worth using. Every figure here assumes the whole model is resident on the card.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— would two GPUs run it faster?

A second card roughly doubles the memory available but not the generation rate. The number already able to run it alone: 818. So a second card is rarely the answer here.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— why does the quantisation differ between cards?

A larger card holds a more accurate copy. The number of compression levels used across the cards that run it: 1. Bigger cards get the more accurate version, and the quality floor above pins the comparison to one level.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— how accurate are these speed estimates?

These are estimates with real error bars, and any of them could reasonably land anywhere in its published range depending on which runtime you use. The fastest result here: 2,033–5,421 tok/s on B200. The same model and card vary by thirty to fifty per cent depending on the inference software and its version.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— what GPU do I need to run it?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds it is Tesla C1080, with a memory capacity of 4 GB. It runs the model at a compression of Q8_0 using about 1.8 GB, and produces roughly 36.9 tokens per second. The number of cards able to run it in total: 818.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— how fast is it on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is B200, at about 3,388 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and the number of cards clearing that: 806.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— how much VRAM does it need?

It needs about 1.8 GB at a compression of Q8_0, which is what the smallest card that runs it uses. Less compression needs more: the figures in the memory column above are recalculated for each card, because each one holds the least-compressed version it can.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— can I run it on a GPU holding 8 GB?

Yes. The card CMP 170HX 8 GB, holding 8 GB, runs it at a compression of Q8_0, using about 1.8 GB and generating roughly 631 tokens per second. The fit is comfortable.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— can I run it on a GPU holding 12 GB?

Yes. The card GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, holding 12 GB, runs it at a compression of Q8_0, using about 1.8 GB and generating roughly 386 tokens per second. The fit is comfortable.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— can I run it on a GPU holding 16 GB?

Yes. The card Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB, holding 16 GB, runs it at a compression of Q8_0, using about 1.8 GB and generating roughly 479 tokens per second. The fit is comfortable.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— can I run it on a GPU holding 24 GB?

Yes. The card GeForce RTX 5090 D V2, holding 24 GB, runs it at a compression of Q8_0, using about 1.8 GB and generating roughly 568 tokens per second. The fit is comfortable.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— is it open source?

Its weights are published, so it can be downloaded and run on your own hardware. Note that open weights is not the same as open source in the full sense — it says nothing about the training data, the training code, or the commercial terms attached.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— how many parameters does it have?

It has a parameter count of 1B. That figure is the total, and it is what decides how much memory the model needs — roughly half a gigabyte per billion at the compression most people use.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— who created it?

It was published by IDEA CCNL, based in China, an organisation categorised as academia.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— when was it released?

It was published in October 2022. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

Taiyi-Stable Diffusion— what is it used for?

It works in the domain of Image generation, and is recorded as handling the task of image generation, Text-to-image. A model can carry several of each, so these are the areas it was built for rather than a limit on what it will attempt.
