Intel B65 GPUs tested for large context performance with flash-next

A user conducted benchmarks on a four-unit Intel B65 GPU setup to evaluate its performance with large context windows for models like flash-next. The tests measured token throughput across various simultaneous request loads and context lengths, with results indicating performance degradation as context size increased and request concurrency rose. The user also explored offloading some model layers to system RAM, noting interesting findings for flash-next in this configuration. AI

IMPACT Provides real-world performance data for Intel B65 GPUs in large context scenarios, informing hardware choices for local LLM deployments.

RANK_REASON User-conducted benchmarks on specific hardware for a particular model.
