UnverifiedAfter INT8 quantization, a model at the 0.9B scale can theoretically reduce its inference memory footprint to below approximately 1GB.72% similarUnverifiedA model with 100 billion parameters requires approximately 80 GB of VRAM to process a single inference request, while a model with tens of billions of parameters requires only about 20 GB.71% similarUnverifiedWhisper's tiny or base variants range from 39M to 74M parameters, and combined with INT8 quantization, the model size can be compressed to 1/4 of the original.69% similarVerifiedModel distillation can compress parameter count to 1/10 of the original while retaining 70–80% of the original performance.69% similarUnverifiedINT8 quantization maps 32-bit floating-point weights to 8-bit integers, compressing model size by 75% with almost no accuracy loss69% similar
