Granite 4.0 1B

11 tokens a second on Linux · no GPU · 4 CPUs · 31 GB RAM. No hosted API sells it, so this network is the place to run it.

6 builds of Granite 4.0 1B, 7 signed runs on real machines: different packagers, precisions and engines, each a different file with its own numbers.

What it fits on

The smallest build needs about 1.2 GB; 17 of 18 kinds of machine on the network can hold it. Bars: each kind's memory (its card's, else RAM) · ticks: every build, at the size it held plus a fifth for the prompt.

How far back it remembers, machine by machine

Filled: the needle came back at that prompt size · outlined: asked and lost · blank: not asked · trained for 128K. 2 walks ended because the model forgot, 5 because the machine could not hold the prompt.

Carbon per million tokens

Lowest build on each machine · 0 of 2 read off a power sensor, the rest modelled from the parts · fewer grams is better

  1. Gram ·e61d3b238 g4.02 J/tok · modelled
  2. Gram ·acbe75501 g3.81 J/tok · modelled

Carbon is location-based: signed energy × the yearly average of the grid where the machine signed its place (EU grid average (applied to NL) · world grid average (place not signed); Ember Global Electricity Review 2025 (2024 generation), location-based). Facility overhead is not included. A machine on its own solar is not credited until it can prove it.

Measured by

The people whose machines signed these numbers

proved by at least one build: Tool calling · Tool loop finished · Structured output · Sustained output · Writes code · Follows instructions

Every build

Each its own file with its own page: the machines that ran it and their signatures.
