Gemini 1.0 Pro· Sarvam 30B

Quick Verdict

Pick Sarvam 30B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Gemini 1.0 Pro only becomes the better choice if agentic is the priority or you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.

Sarvam 30B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 48 to 40. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

Sarvam 30B's sharpest advantage is in knowledge, where it averages 80 against 44.3. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is HumanEval, 54% to 92.1%. Gemini 1.0 Pro does hit back in agentic, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

Sarvam 30B is the reasoning model in the pair, while Gemini 1.0 Pro is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. Sarvam 30B gives you the larger context window at 64K, compared with 32K for Gemini 1.0 Pro.

Decision framing

BenchLM keeps the benchmark table and the operator tradeoffs on the same page so a better score does not hide a materially slower, pricier, or smaller-context model.

Runtime metrics show N/A when BenchLM does not have a sourced snapshot for that exact model. The scoring rules and freshness policy are documented on the methodology page.
