Ollama + about 8 different models at the moment, hosted on a mac mini with open webui as a front end.
Predominantly for transcription, translation, an extra round of security checks on code, a more context friendly home assistant interface, and a daily run of context evaluation on property I’m looking for with a lot of specific needs (acreage, min elevation change, soil type, area, etc).
On the list but haven’t gotten to it yet, but I know I should. I could probably get a bit more out of that box with it, expand the context windows a bit…
Nice, I’ve got a Mac Studio M1 Max with 32GB of RAM that I use with Ollama and then I host OpenWebUI and OpenCode on my Arch Server. I use the Mac as a primary workstation, so it’s a little rough when I start running a model. I’m sure I could probably do and learn more about Ollama to improve my experience, but for now it works for certain tasks.
Yep.

I have to recommend switching to llamacpp. It’s SO much faster than ollama.

What spec Mini do you use?
Just an m2 w/ 16gb I repurposed.
Can’t really do a lot at once, and the context is limited, but it does the trick. I’d buy a few more if I saw them at the right price.

I got mine a few years back for some iOS builds, don’t need to do them that often so it became the model host for me
How? What is your average response time?
Apple silicon is pretty good at it as long as you’ve got the ram for it. I wouldn’t do less than 16GB.
A few seconds for most of the tasks
