Best Practices

// ❌ Don't load multiple large models
RunAnywhere.loadLLMModel("model-3b")
RunAnywhere.loadSTTModel("whisper-large")

// ✅ Load one LLM at a time, use smaller models
RunAnywhere.loadLLMModel("model-0.5b")

// Unload models when switching tasks or backgrounding
override fun onStop() {
    super.onStop()
    lifecycleScope.launch {
        RunAnywhere.unloadLLMModel()
        RunAnywhere.unloadSTTModel()
    }
}

val modelInfo = RunAnywhere.model(modelId)
val requiredMemory = modelInfo?.downloadSize ?: 0

val activityManager = getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE) as ActivityManager
val memoryInfo = ActivityManager.MemoryInfo()
activityManager.getMemoryInfo(memoryInfo)

if (memoryInfo.availMem < requiredMemory * 1.5) {
    showWarning("Low memory - performance may be affected")
}

// ✅ Use Q4 models for mobile devices
val model = RunAnywhere.registerModel(
    name = "Qwen 0.5B Q4",
    url = "...qwen2.5-0.5b-instruct-q4_0.gguf",
    framework = InferenceFramework.LLAMA_CPP
)

// ✅ Stream tokens for perceived faster responses
RunAnywhere.generateStream(prompt)
    .collect { token ->
        textView.append(token)
    }

// ❌ Waiting for full response feels slow
val result = RunAnywhere.generate(prompt)
textView.text = result.text

// ✅ Match maxTokens to your use case
val shortAnswer = LLMGenerationOptions(maxTokens = 50)   // Quick Q&A
val mediumAnswer = LLMGenerationOptions(maxTokens = 200) // General chat
val longForm = LLMGenerationOptions(maxTokens = 500)     // Stories/articles

// ✅ Comprehensive error handling
