A comparison of frameworks, models, and costs for deploying Llama models locally and privately.
- Four tools were analyzed: HuggingFace, vLLM, Ollama, and llama.cpp.
- HuggingFace has a wide range of models but struggles with quantized models.
- vLLM is experimental and lacks full support for quantized models.
- Ollama is user-friendly but has some customization limitations.
- llama.cpp is preferred for its performance and customization options.
- The analysis focused on llama.cpp and Ollama, comparing speed and power consumption across different quantizations.
