Enhancement / Documentation

I suggest to add a small paragraph explaining the effect and why someone should or should not download a quantized version of a model.

I feel like it's a fairly technical subject but it can impact the perceived performance of any kind of user.
I would add it possibly under the Model Library section.
I'd be open to write it.
(Ollama is awesome thanks for creating it!)

Hi @moDal7 it would be great if you write that. But asking bing of chatGPT gives also a good explanation and it's interactive, so we can chat to get more informations on a topic that is important for us.
