# 16k rather than 8k because the measured prefill falloff is mild
# and this model's KV cache is unusually cheap — only 10 of its 40
# layers use full attention.
# 32k because Home Assistant's Assist agent measured 18910 tokens
# for a single request: ~12k of exposed-entity overview plus ~7k of
# base instructions and tool schemas, whose parameters enumerate
# every exposed name, area and floor. At 16384 the request was
# refused outright.
#
# --ctx-size is per slot, not the total: /props reports
# n_ctx_slot equal to this value while running four slots, where a
# total would have divided down to 4096. Doubling it alone would
# therefore double the KV cache, so the slot count halves in step
# and the allocation stays where it is today — 24979 MiB of the
# 32Gi limit, most of it the 19.5 GiB of weights.
#
# Two slots is what is actually in use: one holds Home Assistant's
# prompt, one holds Paperless's. A third caller would queue rather
# than evict either, which is the better failure mode given a cold
# prefill of this prompt costs around two minutes.
