In this lesson I will show you how to get your Ollama LLMs running on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano running under Jetpack 7.2 on the GPU. This is a follow on from our earlier lesson where we showed you how to install Ollama on the Orin. Today, we will do a deep dive and begin to look at performance, and investigate whether the models are running on GPU or CPU. For maximum performance it is imperative to get the work onto the GPU. I will show you how to understand this, then your benchmarks for different models
Leave a comment below. If you have the model leave a comment 'I am running with the Big Dogs Now? Also, be sure to complete the benchmark homework, and post your solution as a video on your channel, and in the description of your video, link back to this video.
