This changes the memory allocation strategy from upfront estimation to tracking actual allocations done by the engine and reacting to that. The goal is avoid issues caused by both under-estimation (crashing) and over-estimation (low performance due to under-utilized GPUs). It is currently opt-in and can be enabled for models running on the Ollama engine by setting OLLAMA_NEW_ESTIMATES=1. Behavior in other cases is unchanged and will continue to use the existing estimates.
