Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/4491

What is the issue?

When using the REST API to pull models, the PULL request seems to timeout for large models (llama3).

This is linked to this issue.

Is there any way to override the default session timeout when pulling models ? I noticed that the Generate endpoint accepts a KeepAlive parameter to override this. Could this be possible for pull as well ?

I'm fairly confident this is a client-side issue. Enable streaming, or set a longer client-side timeout
