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.

DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation is small enough at 98M parameters that hardware is rarely the obstacle — 818 of the cards we track can run it, including cards several years old.
The smallest card that holds it is the Tesla C1080 with 4 GB, running it at Q8_0 and producing around 376 tokens per second.
Top of the range is the B200, at roughly 34,574 tokens per second thanks to 8,000 GB/s of bandwidth.
What this model is
DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation was published by Carnegie Mellon University (CMU),Intel Labs, in United States of America, in June 2021. It comes out of academia,Industry.
It works in Language, and is recorded as doing language modeling.
Published weights mean the model runs on your machine rather than someone else's, which is what makes the hardware question below answerable at all.
What decides the speed
The median result is around 970.8 tokens per second; 818 cards produce text faster than most people read it.
It is a dense model, so every parameter is read for every token produced. That makes speed track memory bandwidth almost exactly — a card with twice the bandwidth generates roughly twice as fast.
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 around 2.9 × 10¹⁹ FLOP of arithmetic, on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti 11GB, which is a statement about the training budget rather than about inference.
Step by step
How to choose a GPU for DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation
The table above has already assessed every card we hold specifications for against this model. Getting to your answer takes six steps.
-
01
Read the memory figure first
Look at what DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation actually needs — around 0.8 GB at Q8_0. No amount of processing power compensates for a card that cannot hold it.
-
02
Decide how long your conversations run
Set the context to what you will actually use. The cache grows with the conversation, and it is the usual reason DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation stops fitting a card that seemed fine.
-
03
Choose how far you will compress it
The quantisation column varies by card, because a bigger card holds a more accurate copy of DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation — Q8_0 on the smallest card that fits. Set a floor to hold the comparison at one level.
-
04
Rank by throughput rather than spec sheet
Ranking by tokens per second for DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation follows memory bandwidth, not core counts, which is why the B200 tops it at 34,574 tok/s.
-
05
Look at the headroom, not just the fit
Tight means DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation loads and works, with no room to raise the context later. Comfortable means you can. The difference matters more than a few tokens per second.
-
06
Check the card from the other side
Following a card through to its own page shows every other model it can hold, which is the question that follows once DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation is settled.
Answers
DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation — common questions
Why does the quantisation differ between cards for DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation?
Because capacity varies, so does how hard DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation has to be squeezed — 1 distinct levels appear in the table above. Set a minimum quality to compare at one.
How accurate are these DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation speed estimates?
They are calculated from specifications rather than measured, and each carries a range — 20,744–55,318 tok/s on the B200, for instance. The same model and card vary by thirty to fifty per cent depending on the inference software and its version.
What GPU do I need to run DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation?
The smallest card in our catalogue that holds DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation is the Tesla C1080, with 4 GB of memory. It runs the model at Q8_0 using about 0.8 GB, and produces roughly 376 tokens per second. 818 cards in total can run it.
How fast is DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation on a GPU?
It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is a B200 at about 34,574 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and 818 of the cards that can run DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation clear that.
How much VRAM does DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation need?
About 0.8 GB at Q8_0 compression, 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.
Can I run DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation on a 8 GB GPU?
Yes. A CMP 170HX 8 GB with 8 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 0.8 GB and generating roughly 6,439 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.
Can I run DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation on a 12 GB GPU?
Yes. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 12 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 0.8 GB and generating roughly 3,943 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.
Can I run DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation on a 16 GB GPU?
Yes. A Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB with 16 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 0.8 GB and generating roughly 4,884 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.
Can I run DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation on a 24 GB GPU?
Yes. A GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 with 24 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 0.8 GB and generating roughly 5,791 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.
Is DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation open source?
Its weights are published, so DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation 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.
How many parameters does DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation have?
DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation has 98M parameters. 98M (Table 1). 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.
Who created DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation?
DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation was published by Carnegie Mellon University (CMU),Intel Labs, based in United States of America, categorised as academia,Industry.
When was DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation released?
DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation was published in June 2021. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
What is DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation used for?
DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.
Where can I download DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation?
The weights for DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation are published, though we do not hold a repository link for it. This site calculates hardware requirements rather than hosting model files.
How much compute was used to train DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation?
Around 2.9 × 10¹⁹ FLOP, on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti 11GB. 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.
Can I run DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation if it does not fit in my GPU?
It can be split between the card and system memory, but DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation generates painfully slowly that way. Nothing on this page assumes offloading.
Would two GPUs run DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation faster?
Two cards buy memory rather than speed. That matters for DEQ-Transformer (Post-LN) + Jacobian Regularisation only if one card cannot hold it — 818 can, so a second adds little.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
