The Celeste-12B model, now enhanced with quantized versions available in GGUF format, presents a significant advantage for machine learning practitioners. This guide will walk you through the steps to effectively use these high-performance models, including troubleshooting tips to ensure a smooth experience.
Usage of GGUF Files
Before diving into the usage of GGUF files, it’s beneficial to understand the significance of this format. GGUF files, similar to how different recipe books cater to varied cuisines, are tailored for optimized model performance. Here’s how you can use them:
- Start by downloading the required GGUF file. You can find links to various versions below:
- Q2_K – 4.9 GB
- IQ3_XS – 5.4 GB
- Q3_K_S – 5.6 GB
- IQ3_S – 5.7 GB (Beats Q3_K)
- IQ3_M – 5.8 GB
- Q3_K_M – 6.2 GB
- Q3_K_L – 6.7 GB
- IQ4_XS – 6.9 GB
- Q4_K_S – 7.2 GB (Fast, recommended)
- Q4_K_M – 7.6 GB (Fast, recommended)
- Q5_K_S – 8.6 GB
- Q5_K_M – 8.8 GB
- Q6_K – 10.2 GB (Very good quality)
- Q8_0 – 13.1 GB (Fast, best quality)

Understanding the Model and Its Performance
To efficiently illustrate how the GGUF files function, think of them as different tools in a carpenter’s workshop. Each tool (in this case, each quantized version) serves a unique purpose, whether that’s cutting, drilling, or sanding. Depending on the nature of the project (your specific requirements), you may opt for a specific tool to achieve the desired finish. Similarly, higher quantized versions like IQ4_XS might be preferred for performance, while Q2_K could be chosen for speed.
Troubleshooting: Common Issues and Solutions
When working with GGUF files, you might encounter some challenges. Here are a few troubleshooting tips:
- If you face trouble downloading files, check your internet connection or try a different browser.
- In case of file corruption, ensure you’re using a reliable download manager or attempt the download again.
- If the model doesn’t load as expected, ensure you have the necessary dependencies installed and they are updated.
