From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ollama will almost always be slower than running vllm or llama.cpp, nobody should be suggesting it for anything agentic. On most consumer hardware, the availability of llama.cpp's --cpu-moe flag alone is absurdly good and worth the effort to familiarize yourself with llamacpp instead of ollama.
I have used Ollama so far and it's indeed quite slow, can you recommend a good guide for setting up llama.cpp (on linux). I have Ollama running in a docker container with openwebui, that kind of setup would be ideal.
I just run the
llama-swapdocker container with a config file mounted, set to listen for config changes so I don't have to restart it to add new models. I don't have a guide besides the README for llama-swap.AI Acknowledgement
The joke is worth the slop, imo. "Cpu Moe". 😂 Find me an anime drawing of a CPU (especially an iconic one) and I'll use that instead.In your defense, I've thought the same joke every time I've seen it lol
