What about a longer context?

An estimate, not a measurement: the KV cache grows with context, takes VRAM and slows generation down.

Context	KV cache	Estimated VRAM	Fits in 12 GB?	Estimated speed
4 096	0,1 Go	4,0 Go	yes	≈ 106 tok/s
8 192	0,1 Go	4,1 Go	yes	≈ 105 tok/s
16 384	0,2 Go	4,2 Go	yes	≈ 102 tok/s
32 768	0,4 Go	4,4 Go	yes	≈ 97,6 tok/s

KV cache per token = 2 × 7 layers × 2 KV heads × 256 × 2 bytes (f16). Estimated VRAM = measured VRAM + added KV cache. Speed ≈ measured speed × weights ÷ (weights + added KV cache) — attention compute is not modelled, the real drop is slightly larger. Fine-tune it in the “Configurator”
