Hardware to run Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-NVFP4

Weights need about 41 GB at FP16, 22 GB at INT8 and 12 GB at INT4. The KV cache adds roughly 82 MB per 1,000 tokens per request. For a reference workload of 5 requests per second with 1,500 input and 300 output tokens, total GPU memory is around 16.6 GB, which fits on 1 × NVIDIA A100 (80 GB).
