How to Use Llamacpp Quantizations of Celeste-12B-V1.6

Category :

Dive into the world of AI with the powerful Celeste-12B model quantized using Llamacpp. This guide will lead you step-by-step to successfully utilize the model and resolve any potential hiccups along the way.

Understanding the Basics of Quantization

Imagine a high-definition picture of your favorite landmark—it has all the details and colors that make it breathtaking. Now, think of quantization as reducing that magnificent picture to fit on your smartphone without losing too much clarity. You still want a view that retains most of its beauty while being manageable in size. This is what Llamacpp does for the Celeste-12B model: it compresses the model to various sizes without sacrificing much of the performance. The different quant types (like Q8_0 or Q5_K) correspond to different sizes and qualities, much like different resolutions of the same image.

Where to Start

  • Pipeline Setup: Ensure you have the transformers library installed:
  • pip install transformers
  • Download the Model: Head over to the Hugging Face repository and select the file that suits your requirements:

Downloading with huggingface-cli

To download a specific file, ensure you have the CLI installed:

pip install -U huggingface_hub[cli]

Then, run the following command to download your desired model file:

huggingface-cli download bartowski/Celeste-12B-V1.6-GGUF --include Celeste-12B-V1.6-Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir .

Choosing the Right Model for Your Needs

The size of your available RAM and VRAM will help you determine which model quantization to use. Here are some key takeaways:

  • For maximum speed, use models that fit within your GPU’s VRAM.
  • For the best quality, consider your total RAM and VRAM combined and select accordingly.
  • If you prefer simplicity, K-quants (like Q5_K_M) are ideal.

Troubleshooting

If you face difficulties while downloading or using the model, here are some strategies you might find beneficial:

  • Slow Download Speeds: Check your internet connection and try using a different network if possible.
  • Memory Issues: If the model is consuming too much memory, opt for a smaller quant (e.g., Q6_K or lower).
  • Compatibility Issues: Ensure you’re using supported builds for your hardware, especially if you’re using AMD graphics cards.
