SVD gives a timing where a floor would go

The hardware statement on this card is about 180s on an A100 80GB card. There is no memory minimum anywhere on the page, so the column holds a speed measurement rather than a requirement. As of 2026-09-22.

Inclusion rule. The value this page is about, the detail the vendor attached to it, and the two columns that change how it should be read. A column the vendor left empty keeps its row and says so. Order. This column first, then its detail, then the two columns that qualify it.

1Two different questions

Whether a model runs is a memory question and is answered by a floor. How long it takes is a throughput question and is answered by a timing on a named card. This card answers the second one.

For a team costing out a rendering farm, the timing is the more valuable figure. For somebody with one desktop card, it is unusable.

2Why the gap is notable on this release

This is a 2B model trained to generate 25 frames at 576x1024. Everything about it invites a reader to try it on modest hardware, and the hardware line points at an 80GB data-centre card.

The absence therefore has consequences rather than being a formality. A reader has to find the answer somewhere the register will not send them.

3What the register records instead

The timing, the card it was measured on, and no memory figure. Deriving a floor from the parameter count would produce a number with no source, and the nearest comparable row in the register shows why that fails.

Another release of the same nominal size publishes over thirty gigabytes. Arithmetic from two billion parameters would not have predicted it.

Every figure above is the vendor's own, taken from huggingface.co/stabilityai on 2026-09-22 with nothing measured here. The rest of the release is on its family entry, the whole column is on hardware, and all memory figures together are on requirements. Nearby: Six gigabytes, named cards, Offloading, no numbers.
