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.

Do you know of any nifty resources on how to create RAGs using ollama/webui? (Or even fine-tuning?). I've tried to set it up, but the documents provided doesn't seem to be analysed properly.
I'm trying to get the LLM into reading/summarising a certain type of (wordy) files, and it seems the query prompt is limited to about 6k characters.
Increase context length, probably enable flash attention in ollama too. Llama3.1 support up to 128k context length, for example. That's in tokens and a token is on average a bit under 4 letters.
Note that higher context length requires more ram and it's slower, so you ideally want to find a sweet spot for your use and hardware. Flash attention makes this more efficient
Oh, and the model needs to have been trained at larger contexts, otherwise it tends to handle it poorly. So you should check what max length the model you want to use was trained to handle
I need to look into flash attention! And if i understand you correctly a larger model of llama3.1 would be better prepared to handle a larger context window than a smaller llama3.1 model?
No, all sizes of llama 3.1 should be able to handle the same size context. The difference would be in the "smarts" of the model. Bigger models are better at reading between the lines and higher level understanding and reasoning.
