Hi there,

It would be nice to see a feature that allows users to set default CPU or GPU usage for specific models in Ollama. For instance, a 1.5 code completion model could default to CPU, while larger chatbot models use the GPU.

Additionally, having the option to set specific sleep times for each model would help with resource management.

Thank you

@rick-github commented on GitHub (Oct 25, 2024):

You can make a model load on the CPU by setting num_gpu to zero: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/6950#issuecomment-2373663650. Work on managing where models are allocated is being tracked in #3902 but there's no progress so far.
