What the Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct numbers mean

The fastest verified result on our board is 26.1 output tok/s on an RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell at FP8 with a 32768-token context. That is about 38.4 ms per generated token — 500 tokens takes roughly 19.2 seconds. Across the 2 records we hold for this model the range is 26.1–263.0 tok/s on 2 GPUs, because quantisation, context length and the engine build all move the number.

How much VRAM does Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct need?

Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct has 30.0B parameters. These estimates use the same formula as the VRAM calculator: weights, plus about 15% for a moderate-context KV cache and runtime overhead, plus a small engine floor.

Long contexts and large batches raise the real number — read the smallest card as "possible with a reduced context". Measured throughput is on the benchmark board.
