Mistral 7B (Q4)
Mistral 7B Instruct v0.3, Q4_K_M, batch 1, 4K context.
Primary metric: Tokens / sec (tok/s)
Reference prompts
Representative prompts for this workload. Exact prompts and harness settings still depend on the cited source for each record.
- Prompt 1
Explain the relationship between attention heads and KV cache memory usage for a 7B-parameter transformer at 4K context.
- Prompt 2
Write a 60-word product description for a mid-range AI workstation: 1× RTX 4090, 64GB DDR5, 2TB NVMe. Highlight one trade-off.
- Prompt 3
List five concrete differences between INT4 weight-only quantization (Q4_K_M) and INT8 quantization (Q8_0) for inference.
- Prompt 4
I have 12GB of VRAM and want to run a coding assistant locally. What model size and quantization fit, with what context length?
- Prompt 5
Summarize the difference between greedy decoding and nucleus sampling in 3 short bullet points.
Reference runtime command
A representative invocation for reproducing this workload class. Source-specific runs may use adjacent runtimes unless the record says otherwise.
llama-server -m mistral-7b-instruct-v0.3.Q4_K_M.gguf -c 4096 -ngl 999 --seed 42Single batch. The Mistral 7B numbers should track Llama 3 8B closely on compute-bound devices.
Full leaderboard
Every record for Mistral 7B.
No comparable multi-device results
The current selection lacks two devices with matching workload, quantization, context, batch and documented runtime. No speed winner is assigned. Inspect the source-attributed records.
