Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

It does work, but it's not really fast. I upgraded to 96gb ddr4 from 32gb a year or so ago, and being able to play with the bigger models was fun, but it's not something I could do anything productive with it was so slow.
Your bottle necked by memory bandwidth
You need ddr5 with lots of memory channels for it to he useful
I always thought using ddr5 average speeds with like 64gb in sticks on consumer boards is passable. Not great, but passable.
You can have applications where wall clock tine time is not all that critical but large model size is valuable, or where a model is very sparse, so does little computation relative to the size of the model, but for the major applications, like today's generative AI chatbots, I think that that's correct.
Ya, that's fair. If I was doing something I didn't care about time on, it did work. And we weren't talking hours, it it could be many minutes though.
