Do you know if there's there a good reason to favor 3.11 over 3.10 for this use case?

- CharlesW 4y agoI'm a Python neophyte, but I've read that Python 3.11 is 10-60% faster than 3.10, so that may be a consideration.
- simonw 4y agoIn this particular case that doesn't matter, because the only time you run Python is for a one-off conversion against the model files. That takes at most a minute to run, but once converted you'll never need to run it again. Actual llama.cpp model inference uses compiled C++ code with no Python involved at all.

- codetrotter 4y agoThe real question is. Which python3 version does current macOS ship with? Well, on my macOS Ventura 13.2.1 install, /usr/bin/python3 is Python 3.9.6, which may be too old? But also, my custom installed python3 via homebrew is not 3.11 either. My /opt/homebrew/bin/python3 is Python 3.10.9 MacBook Pro M1
