fitgpu 0.1.1

Check if a HuggingFace model fits in your GPU

Check if a HuggingFace model will run on your GPU.

fitgpu takes a HuggingFace model ID and tells you whether the model's weights will fit in your GPU's available VRAM.

How?

1. Gets model's file metadata from HuggingFace (weights are not downloaded)
2. Sums up the sizes of all weight files (.safetensors / .bin)
3. Queries your GPU's free VRAM using the NVIDIA driver
4. Compares and shows the result
