Should you pick H20 for embeddings?

H20 has 96 GB VRAM. Whether it's the right fit for embeddings depends on your model size, expected QPS, and budget. Below is what we're seeing in production.

VRAM + model fit

H20 fits models up to ~67B parameters in BF16 comfortably with room for KV-cache. For embeddings specifically, you'll want to leave headroom for context length growth.

Throughput

On embeddings workloads, H20 typically delivers the throughput published in its FP16 spec, minus the framework overhead (vLLM ≈ 85% MFU, TGI ≈ 70%).
