Opinionated llama.cpp VRAM calculator that outputs ready-to-run server commands.

Strengths
  • Includes MTP draft KV and compute buffers missed by generic calculators.
  • Pessimistic estimates prevent OOM crashes better than optimistic theoretical minimums.
  • Direct command generation saves digging through llama.cpp documentation for flags.
Weaknesses
  • Curated model list limits utility for niche or custom fine-tunes.
  • Single GPU assumption excludes multi-GPU setups common in high-end rigs.
