Ollama benchmark Q2 2024 - Exoscale A40 - Consumption
Go back to listAs power consumption is one of the main aspect of performance, we obtained several measurements of usage through the gpu-burn software:
- GFLOPS: As therorical raw performance value
- Temperature: Average hotness during the operation
- Watt: Average energy delivery

Notes
- Please keep in mind that GFLOPS doesn't directly reflect what LLM can directly provides
- Power consumption is not in the original sofware. Cloud Mercato did a pull request to include this value in results. Feel free to help us to push this contribution
- An NVIDIA A40 has idle temperature of 33 C° and 14 Watts
- No errors were produced by GPU computations during our tests
