Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/10295

It seems that integer quantized models, while smaller on disk, appear to be handled using floats when executed in ollama.

Could there be an option to run them on integers, instead?

That would give a great performance boost on weaker hardware.

I do believe that I've seen this imlemented with the llama.cpp project.

Please share your thoughts on this. 🤗

Thanks!
