Performance Notes

Expect robust L40S performance on Massed Compute: 48GB VRAM handles large-batch training/inference; Ada architecture yields high throughput in vis/AI (e.g., competitive with A100 in Omniverse). Network bandwidth supports data-intensive tasks (exact figures unpublished; assume 10-100Gbps typical for boutique VMs). NVMe storage options enable fast I/O for datasets. Multi-GPU scaling unconfirmed—likely single-GPU focus for workstations. ThinLinc optimizes remote access, minimizing perf loss vs. local. Benchmarks indicate strong scaling in simulations; real-world ML perf depends on CPU/RAM pairing and workload—recommend provider benchmarks or trials for specifics.
