Assumptions (5)
  • FP8 weights (128B params) + 25% KV-cache headroom ≈ 160 GB
  • 4× H100 80GB at $2.69–$6.88/GPU-hour on-demand (2026-09-24)
  • ~2,947 output tok/s aggregate at batch 86 (bandwidth-bound)
  • Blended 3:1 input:output; prefill ~14,611 tok/s
  • Low = 75% utilization at the low GPU price; high = 20% at the high price
