Although MoE architecture activates fewer parameters, all parameters still need to be loaded into VRAM, so VRAM requirements do not decrease proportionally.

UnverifiedThe core trade-off of MoE is large capacity at low compute: the activated parameters are only a fraction of the total parameter count, but memory requirements are not reduced accordingly.78% similarUnverifiedK2.5的MoE架构单次推理实际激活的参数量可能只有总参数的1/8甚至更少72% similarUnverifiedSparse-activation MoE models save on computation rather than VRAM, as the full weights still need to reside permanently across a multi-GPU cluster.68% similarUnverifiedSparse MoE means the feed-forward layers are split into multiple experts, and each token activates only a small subset of them, so although the total parameter count is 32.9B, the number of parameters actually computed per forward pass is far smaller than that of a dense model, but VRAM still needs to hold all expert weights.68% similarVerifiedAlthough MoE models infer quickly, they have higher demands on VRAM and memory capacity because all expert parameters must be loaded, representing a trade-off between speed and capacity.66% similar
