Use-case guide · Information extraction

Should you pick L4 for information extraction?

L4 has 24 GB VRAM. Whether it's the right fit for information extraction depends on your model size, expected QPS, and budget. Below is what we're seeing in production.

VRAM + model fit

L4 fits models up to ~17B parameters in BF16 comfortably with room for KV-cache. For information extraction specifically, you'll want to leave headroom for context length growth.
