@FarisHijazi commented on GitHub (Mar 19, 2025):

why though, if you actually cared about performance you should be using proper embeddings inference like HF text-embedding and then connecting to it as an OpenAI endpoint, open-webui already supports custom OpenAI endpoints.

Or you could connect everything through litellm which also allows you to configure embedding endpoints and model endpoints all in one place.
