This model is deprecated. We only continue performance benchmarking for the default 10k input token workload. Results for other workloads are historical and no longer updated.

IBM has launched a newer model, Granite 4.0 Micro. We suggest considering it instead.

For more information, see comparison of Granite 4.0 Micro to other models and API provider benchmarks for Granite 4.0 Micro.
