Timer is accurate only if you have first done experiments with your unique settings. However temperature gauges are very useful. I usually trust my eyes and nose more than a timer.…

1. turn the swap off or monitor it closely 2. try to load a big model, like 65b-q4 or 30b-f16 3. observe the OOM - It's not so hard to test this.
