Parent post was talking about an 8GB dataset.
8GB isn't even CPU RAM these days. That's GPU super-mega-awesome ram. Ordinary Server CPUs are regularly pushing 2TB capacities.
GPUs are in the 8GB to 32GB typically, at least for smaller and more regular GPUs. This GPU RAM is also well known to be at least 10x the bandwidth of CPU RAM.
Yeah, I have a GPU from almost six years ago in my desktop that has twice that much VRAM. Less than a year ago my wife got a 5070 Ti with the same for around $750 without needing to wait for it to be in stock or anything. I'm inclined to think that for a server that needs a GPU, even 32 GB would probably be considered small.
