e5-mistral-7b-instruct - llamafile

This repository contains executable weights (which we call llamafiles) that run on Linux, MacOS, Windows, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD for AMD64 and ARM64.

• Model creator: intfloat
• Original model: intfloat/e5-mistral-7b-instruct
• GGUF weights: second-state/E5-Mistral-7B-Instruct-Embedding-GGUF
• Built with llamafile 0.8.4

Quickstart

Running the following on a desktop OS will launch a server on http://localhost:8080 to which you can send HTTP requests to in order to get embeddings:

chmod +x e5-mistral-7b-instruct-Q5_K_M.llamafile
./e5-mistral-7b-instruct-Q5_K_M.llamafile --server --nobrowser --embedding

Then, you can use your favorite HTTP client to call the server's /embedding endpoint:

curl \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"content": "Hello, world!"}' \
http://localhost:8080/embedding

For further information, please see the llamafile README and the llamafile server docs.

About llamafile

llamafile is a new format introduced by Mozilla Ocho on Nov 20th 2023. It uses Cosmopolitan Libc to turn LLM weights into runnable llama.cpp binaries that run on the stock installs of six OSes for both ARM64 and AMD64.

About Quantization Formats

Your choice of quantization format depends on three things:

1. Will it fit in RAM or VRAM?
2. Is your use case reading (e.g. summarization) or writing (e.g. chatbot)?
3. llamafiles bigger than 4.30 GB are hard to run on Windows (see gotchas)

Good quants for writing (eval speed) are Q5_K_M, and Q4_0. Text generation is bounded by memory speed, so smaller quants help, but they also cause the LLM to hallucinate more.

Good quants for reading (prompt eval speed) are BF16, F16, Q4_0, and Q8_0 (ordered from fastest to slowest). Prompt evaluation is bounded by computation speed (flops) so simpler quants help.

Note: BF16 is currently only supported on CPU.
