The 2026.4.26 version has difficulties in using the local model.(run by llama.cpp) The first conversation takes 7 minutes to access the local large model, and it often gets disconnected. The 2026.4.15 version can invoke the local large model within one minute. The support for local large models in the recent versions has been poor, and the local large models often cannot be used. The latest version of the local large model that works well is 2026.4.15. We hope that the issue of the local large model not being able to run can be completely resolved.
