using nvtop I see 46.8 GB of VRAM used.
I also ran additional testing to see how the value of spec-draft-n-max affects the speed and VRAM.

You got the 4090 48gb version! So cool. I get similar speeds. I use a 4090 and 3090 before 27.5 tokens 200k ctx. Around 50 with mtp 4-6. Sometimes 40-66 tokens depending on typical tasks. I bet that 48gb allows you to do great video creations.
@SlavikF Thanks for your report. https://huggingface.co/spaces/oobabooga/accurate-gguf-vram-calculator shows Estimated memory usage: 65432 MiB for full fp16, 262144, context. ?
