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.

What it takes to run this model

Minimum card

Tesla C1080

Memory needed

0.7 GB

Fastest

76,831 tok/s

LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) is small enough at 44.1M 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 836 tokens per second.

A B200 is the fastest we calculate for it: about 76,831 tokens per second, from 8,000 GB/s of memory bandwidth.

Background

LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) was published by Brown University,Facebook, in United States of America, in June 2019. It comes out of academia,Industry.

It works in Vision, and is recorded as doing image classification, Neural Architecture Search - NAS.

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

Reading the throughput figures

Half the cards that hold it manage more than 2,157.4 tokens per second, and 818 exceed reading speed outright.

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

The training set ran to roughly 60,000 tokens.

It is tracked in the underlying dataset for one reason in particular: sOTA improvement.

Step by step

How to choose a GPU for LaNet-L (CIFAR-10)

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

  1. 01

    Check what it needs before anything else

    Every card here has been checked against LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) — around 0.7 GB at Q8_0. Capacity is the gate — a card either holds it or it does not.

  2. 02

    Match the context to your actual use

    The conversation occupies memory too, and grows as it goes. Set the slider to the length you expect: at long context LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) can slip off a card that handles short questions easily.

  3. 03

    Decide how much compression you will accept

    Each card runs the least-compressed copy it can hold — Q8_0 on the smallest card that fits. Setting a floor drops the cards that only manage LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) by squeezing it further than you would want.

  4. 04

    Rank by throughput rather than spec sheet

    The speed ordering for LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) is effectively an ordering by memory bandwidth, which is why the B200 tops it at 76,831 tok/s.

  5. 05

    Look at the headroom, not just the fit

    A tight fit runs LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) but leaves nothing spare for a longer conversation; comfortable has headroom. If you expect to grow the context, buy for comfortable.

  6. 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 LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) is settled.

Answers

LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) — common questions

01

Who created LaNet-L (CIFAR-10)?

LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) was published by Brown University,Facebook, based in United States of America, categorised as academia,Industry.

02

When was LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) released?

LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) was published in June 2019. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

03

What is LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) used for?

LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) works in Vision, and is recorded as handling image classification, Neural Architecture Search - NAS. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.

04

Where can I download LaNet-L (CIFAR-10)?

The weights for LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) are published, though we do not hold a repository link for it. This site calculates hardware requirements rather than hosting model files.

05

Can I run LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) if it does not fit in my GPU?

It can be split between the card and system memory, but LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) generates painfully slowly that way. Nothing on this page assumes offloading.

06

Would two GPUs run LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) faster?

A second card roughly doubles the memory available but not the generation rate. With 818 cards already able to run LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) alone, the case for pairing is weak.

07

Why does the quantisation differ between cards for LaNet-L (CIFAR-10)?

Because capacity varies, so does how hard LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) has to be squeezed — 1 distinct levels appear in the table above. Set a minimum quality to compare at one.

08

How accurate are these LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) speed estimates?

These are estimates with real error bars. The fastest result here, 46,098–122,929 tok/s on the B200, could reasonably land anywhere in its published range depending on which runtime you use.

09

What GPU do I need to run LaNet-L (CIFAR-10)?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) is the Tesla C1080, with 4 GB of memory. It runs the model at Q8_0 using about 0.7 GB, and produces roughly 836 tokens per second. 818 cards in total can run it.

10

How fast is LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is a B200 at about 76,831 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 LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) clear that.

11

How much VRAM does LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) need?

About 0.7 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.

12

Can I run LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) on a 8 GB GPU?

Yes. A CMP 170HX 8 GB with 8 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 0.7 GB and generating roughly 14,310 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

13

Can I run LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) on a 12 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 12 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 0.7 GB and generating roughly 8,763 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

14

Can I run LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) on a 16 GB GPU?

Yes. A Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB with 16 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 0.7 GB and generating roughly 10,852 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

15

Can I run LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) on a 24 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 with 24 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 0.7 GB and generating roughly 12,869 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

16

Is LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) open source?

Its weights are published, so LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) 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.

17

How many parameters does LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) have?

LaNet-L (CIFAR-10) has 44.1M parameters. 44.1M. 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.
