llama.cpp is 26.8% faster than ollama.
I have upgraded both, and using the same settings, I am running the same DeepSeek R1 Distill 1.5B on the same hardware. It's an Apples to Apples comparison.
Total duration:
llama.cpp 6.85 sec <- 26.8% faster
ollama 8.69 sec
Breakdown by phase:
Model loading
llama.cpp 241 ms <- 2x faster
ollama 553 ms
Prompt processing
llama.cpp 416.04 tokens/s with an eval time 45.67 ms <- 10x faster
ollama 42.17 tokens/s with an eval time of 498 ms
Token generation
llama.cpp 137.79 tokens/s with an eval time 6.62 sec <- 13% faster
ollama 122.07 tokens/s with an eval time 7.64 sec
llama.cpp is LLM inference in C/C++; ollama adds abstraction layers and marketing.

Yes, DeepSeek R1's release is impressive. But the real story is what happened in just 7 days after:
- Original release: 8 models, 540K downloads. Just the beginning...
- The community turned those open-weight models into +550 NEW models on Hugging Face. Total downloads? 2.5M—nearly 5X the originals.
The reason? DeepSeek models are open-weight, letting anyone build on top of them. Interesting to note that the community focused on quantized versions for better efficiency & accessibility. They want models that use less memory, run faster, and are more energy-efficient.
When you empower builders, innovation explodes. For everyone. 🚀
The most popular community model? @bartowski 's DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B-GGUF version — 1M downloads alone.
