How to run codebooga locally
- 1.Install Ollama for Windows, macOS or Linux.
- 2.Run this in a terminal:
ollama run codebooga:34b - 3.The weights download on first run, then an interactive prompt opens.
Frequently asked questions about codebooga
- How much VRAM do I need to run codebooga?
- At 4K context, the smallest published build of codebooga (Q4_0) needs roughly 25.8 GB of GPU memory once weights, KV cache, compute buffers and runtime overhead are counted. Bigger quantizations and longer context windows need more. It can also run partly or entirely on the CPU using system RAM, more slowly.
- Can I run codebooga without a dedicated GPU?
- Yes, but slowly. Without a GPU the model runs on the CPU using system RAM, which usually means a few tokens per second rather than dozens. You would need at least 25.8 GB of free RAM for the smallest build.
- How big is the codebooga download?
- The smallest published build is 17.7 GB. There are 6 builds in total, the largest being 62.9 GB. Leave some extra free disk space beyond the download itself.
- How do I run codebooga locally?
- Install Ollama, then run "ollama run codebooga:34b" in a terminal. The weights download on first use and an interactive session opens.
