Notes
An 80B coder MoE — clean, mid-pack decode, the largest Qwen MoE benchmarked. Alibaba’s Qwen3-Coder-Next (79.7B total MoE), official FP8 on vLLM.
- Workload: ShareGPT V3, concurrency 32. 753/1000, 0 errors — clean (no parse failures), but hit the 15-min cap. Loaded + CUDA-graph captured in 428 s.
- Throughput (aggregate, conc 32): prefill 203.8 tok/s, decode 184.7 tok/s. TTFT median 618 ms, TPOT median 167 ms (≈6 tok/s/stream), req throughput 0.81/s.
- Where it lands among the MoEs: decode 185 is well below the small 3B-active MoEs (Qwen3-30B-A3B 331, Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B 296) — this “Next” model activates more parameters per token than the A3B line, so per-token compute is higher. It sits near the dense Gemma-31B NVFP4 (167) and the granite-30B MoE (182), consistent with a larger active fraction. Clean 0-error run shows the model serves fine on the stock vLLM.
- Memory: 105.4 GB is the vLLM
--gpu-memory-utilization 0.85reservation, not the footprint (the FP8 weights are ~40 GB). As with every vLLM/SGLang config, treat as a reservation. - Context: native max 262144; benchmarked at 65536 for cross-config comparability.
