Run SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M on your own GPU

SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M is a small & fast catalog model (361.82M) managed with Ollama. Catalog memory is estimated at 2.5 GB with Q4_K_M for a short context (4–8K tokens). Validate output quality and memory use with your workload on your hardware.

Deploy the catalog Ollama tag on your machine and verify the pulled model's quantization. Once deployed, gpuos serves it as smollm-360m-instruct-v0.2-q4-k-m through the hosted gpuos gateway, with API keys, optional token quotas and usage metering. Request and response payloads pass through that gateway.

Compare GPU memory for SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M

Catalog estimate at Q4_K_M, not a measured benchmark. Chat estimates assume a short context; embedding memory depends on input and batch size. The comparison includes a 5% screening margin; it does not establish runtime performance. More in how much VRAM an LLM needs.

Questions

How much VRAM does SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M need?
The catalog estimate is 2.5 GB at Q4_K_M for a short context (4–8K tokens). The RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB clears this estimate with screening headroom in the comparison list. This is a planning estimate, not a tested hardware requirement. Validate context length, batch size and concurrent requests on your node.
Can I use SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M commercially?
Yes. SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M is released under the Apache 2.0 license, which allows commercial use.
Is SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M compatible with the OpenAI API?
Through gpuos, SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M uses the supported /v1/chat/completions endpoint with the model id "smollm-360m-instruct-v0.2-q4-k-m". Configure your OpenAI-compatible client with the gpuos base URL and API key. Check model-specific features and any other API operations your app needs before switching.
Which gpuos plan includes SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M?
SmolLM 360M INSTRUCT V0.2 · Q4_K_M is in the base catalog, available on the free Community plan (1 node, 1 GPU).
