Cross-host Gemma 4 throughput comparison across three architectures. Harness at scripts/gpu-bakeoff/; writeup at docs/reference/gpu-bakeoff-2026-04-20.md. Key findings: - RTX 3090 Ti wins decode decisively (128 tok/s on gemma4:26b MoE Q4, ~4.7× faster than gemma4:31b dense on the same card). - AMD Strix Halo iGPU lands at ~42% of 3090 Ti decode on ~25% of the memory bandwidth — good SIMD utilization, especially for MoE. - V100 numbers are DEGRADED: CT 167 ai-visualizer SDXL consumes 31/32 GB of its VRAM, forcing Gemma 4 models 95% onto CPU. Isolated V100 run requires SDXL eviction — left as follow-up. - MoE vs dense is the dominant latency factor across all GPUs: ~4 B active params of gemma4:26b beats 31.3 B active of gemma4:31b by the same ratio (~4.7×) on every card tested. Methodology: 1 warmup + 3 measurement runs per (host × model × prompt-length), Ollama's canonical timing fields, temp=0 greedy, num_predict=256. All three Ollama servers accessed via HTTP (Strix via Tailscale). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
