ollama - 💡(How to fix) Fix 10 minutes http client timeout is too low when image generation is done on CPU [2 comments, 2 participants]

Fix Plan

The fix is to implement a dynamic timeout based on the hardware used.

Steps to Fix

• Determine the hardware type (GPU or CPU) at runtime
• Set the timeout accordingly
• Update the code to use the dynamic timeout

Example Code

// Determine the hardware type
func getHardwareType() string {
    // For simplicity, assume GPU is detected by the presence of a specific environment variable
    if os.Getenv("GPU Detected") != "" {
        return "GPU"
    }
    return "CPU"
}

// Set the timeout based on the hardware type
func getTimeout() time.Duration {
    hardwareType := getHardwareType()
    if hardwareType == "GPU" {
        return 10 * time.Minute
    } else {
        return 1 * time.Hour
    }
}

// Update the code to use the dynamic timeout
func main() {
    timeout := getTimeout()
    // Use the timeout in the image generation code
    ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), timeout)
    // ...
}

Verification

To verify the fix, run the image generation code on both GPU and CPU hardware and check that the timeout is set correctly. You can add logging statements to print the timeout value before it is used.

Extra Tips

• Consider making the timeout configurable via a command-line flag or environment variable to allow users to adjust it based on their specific use case.
• You may want to add additional logging or monitoring to detect and handle cases where the image generation takes longer than expected.
