An evaluation row appears only where at least two of these models report the same benchmark with the same stated configuration, metric, unit and setup. Different evaluators stay named in each cell. Values are shown as reported: no unit conversion, no ranking.

Other Reported Results

These results are listed for each model on its own, because the conditions needed to compare them are not stated or do not match. Two results that leave a condition blank are not assumed to share it.

SAVRN's Notes on gemma-4-31B-it

One MI300X at $1.85 per hour carries this 31.3 billion parameter Gemma at 16-bit: 62.5 GB of weights and 75.1 GB needed against the card's 192 GB. Quantizing brings that to 37.5 GB at 8-bit and 18.8 GB at 4-bit, but here it buys concurrent context, not fit. With 262,144 tokens of context and image input, we would stay at 16-bit and give the spare memory to long documents.

Apache 2.0 permits commercial use, modification and redistribution, provided the license and NOTICE file stay attached and significant changes are stated. It is the instruction-tuned build of google/gemma-4-31B, described at arXiv:2607.02770; audio input belongs to the E2B, E4B and 12B sizes, not this one. DeepInfra hosts it at $0.13 in and $0.38 out per million tokens, Novita at $0.14 and $0.40; the output rate is where your own facility makes its case.

SAVRN's Notes on Qwen2.5-VL-32B-Instruct

Run it at 16-bit and you need 80.3 GB, so precision is the hardware decision. At 8-bit it needs 40.1 GB, at 4-bit 20.1 GB. The cheapest setup on our board is one 192 GB MI300X at $1.85 per hour on-demand, and at 16-bit the weights alone take 66.9 GB of that card before context loads. Images and text go in, text comes out. Qwen ships the 33.5B parameters as 32 safetensors files, about 68.3 GB, so plan the storage pull first.

Apache 2.0 covers commercial use, modification and redistribution, provided notices stay and significant changes are stated, which suits a deployment inside your facility. Check the context: 128,000 tokens is the ceiling, the configuration lists a 32,768 token sliding window, and the page cites the YaRN paper on context window extension, arXiv 2309.00071, so test with your longest real inputs before committing. The technical report is arXiv 2502.13923.
