Running llama.cpp rather than vLLM, it's happy enough to run the FP8 variant with 200k+ context using about 90GB vram

yeah, what did you get for tok/sec there though? Memory bandwidth is the limitation with these devices. With 4 bit I didn't get over 35-39 tok/sec, and averaged more like 30 when doing actual tool use with opencode. I can't imagine fp8 being faster.
