Ollama – v0.25.0-rc0: ci: speed up release builds (#15982)
Ollama v0.25.0-rc0 🚀
If you’re running LLMs locally, you know Ollama is the go-to for getting models like Llama 3 and DeepSeek-R1 up and running with zero friction. This new release candidate is all about behind-the-scenes efficiency and making the engine run smoother!
The big focus in this update is performance optimization for the development pipeline:
- Faster Release Builds: The CI (Continuous Integration) process has been overhauled to speed up official releases, meaning updates hit your machine sooner.
- Optimized Linux Steps: The build process for Linux has been deduplicated and streamlined for a cleaner installation flow.
- Snappier Local Dev: These optimizations are designed to help speed up local developer builds, making it easier for the community to tinker and contribute 🛠️
Whether you’re a dev building custom tools or just a hobbyist running models on your workstation, this update keeps the momentum moving fast!
