So, last week I tried to update my unused local LLM setup. I had to stop using it because quality was too low and deepseek was too cheap. First thing I stopped using Ollama and now I only use llama.cpp built in server that works really great. The quality improvement from Q4 to Q6 is outstanding and finally a local LLM server can work very similarly to paid APIs. That's great! And MTP makes a big performance gain, on a dual 3090 (downvolted and limited to 65°C) it generates from 20 to 50 tokens per second with minimal heat generation.
