Hi there,

Till now I have tested all these models on my VPS machine and all of them are running extremely slow, taking minute on an average to get a full response.

My VPS Specs:
RAM: 32 GB
CPU: 8
Bandwidth: 33 TB
Disk space: 400 GB

Is there any model which will provide fast responses on ollama?

Phi:chat is running a little better than other models.

Hey @RahulVerma989 . You'll get a lot better response times using a system w/ a GPU such as an AWS EC2 P4/G4 instance. You can also try to use a higher quantization level such as gemma:7b-chat-q2_K, although that might not give you great results. As you mentioned, a lower parameter count model such as phi will also work.

Those are essentially the three levers you've got though:

  1. better hardware (such as a GPU)
  2. higher quantization (i.e. "compression") level (q2_K, q3_K_S, q3_K_M, q3_K_L)
  3. lower parameter count models

I'm going to go ahead and close the issue. Feel free to keep commenting though, or ask away on the Discord.
