BoogerheadCult · reddit · 2026-07-15
PrismML Bonsai 27B is usable on the Jetson Orin Nano 8GB. The author shared a set of local benchmark and resource metrics:
- Context length: 48k
- Prompt processing speed: 27 tok/s
- Generation speed: 4.31 tok/s
- Memory usage after cold start load: 6.2GB (no-mmap)
- Power consumption: 25W
The author concludes that while the speed isn't exceptionally fast, this low-power edge AI configuration handles complex tasks quite well.
