From c61df5dd25fa0d08e9588d42898e8c2918c61216 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marcus Yuan <141548649+MarcusYuan@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2025 12:38:27 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Dynamic Context Window Size for Ollama Chat (#6582) # Dynamic Context Window Size for Ollama Chat ## Problem Statement Previously, the Ollama chat implementation used a fixed context window size of 32768 tokens. This caused two main issues: 1. Performance degradation due to unnecessarily large context windows for small conversations 2. Potential business logic failures when using smaller fixed sizes (e.g., 2048 tokens) ## Solution Implemented a dynamic context window size calculation that: 1. Uses a base context size of 8192 tokens 2. Applies a 1.2x buffer ratio to the total token count 3. Adds multiples of 8192 tokens based on the buffered token count 4. Implements a smart context size update strategy ## Implementation Details ### Token Counting Logic ```python def count_tokens(text): """Calculate token count for text""" # Simple calculation: 1 token per ASCII character # 2 tokens for non-ASCII characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) total = 0 for char in text: if ord(char) < 128: # ASCII characters total += 1 else: # Non-ASCII characters total += 2 return total ``` ### Dynamic Context Calculation ```python def _calculate_dynamic_ctx(self, history): """Calculate dynamic context window size""" # Calculate total tokens for all messages total_tokens = 0 for message in history: content = message.get("content", "") content_tokens = count_tokens(content) role_tokens = 4 # Role marker token overhead total_tokens += content_tokens + role_tokens # Apply 1.2x buffer ratio total_tokens_with_buffer = int(total_tokens * 1.2) # Calculate context size in multiples of 8192 if total_tokens_with_buffer <= 8192: ctx_size = 8192 else: ctx_multiplier = (total_tokens_with_buffer // 8192) + 1 ctx_size = ctx_multiplier * 8192 return ctx_size ``` ### Integration in Chat Method ```python def chat(self, system, history, gen_conf): if system: history.insert(0, {"role": "system", "content": system}) if "max_tokens" in gen_conf: del gen_conf["max_tokens"] try: # Calculate new context size new_ctx_size = self._calculate_dynamic_ctx(history) # Prepare options with context size options = { "num_ctx": new_ctx_size } # Add other generation options if "temperature" in gen_conf: options["temperature"] = gen_conf["temperature"] if "max_tokens" in gen_conf: options["num_predict"] = gen_conf["max_tokens"] if "top_p" in gen_conf: options["top_p"] = gen_conf["top_p"] if "presence_penalty" in gen_conf: options["presence_penalty"] = gen_conf["presence_penalty"] if "frequency_penalty" in gen_conf: options["frequency_penalty"] = gen_conf["frequency_penalty"] # Make API call with dynamic context size response = self.client.chat( model=self.model_name, messages=history, options=options, keep_alive=60 ) return response["message"]["content"].strip(), response.get("eval_count", 0) + response.get("prompt_eval_count", 0) except Exception as e: return "**ERROR**: " + str(e), 0 ``` ## Benefits 1. **Improved Performance**: Uses appropriate context windows based on conversation length 2. **Better Resource Utilization**: Context window size scales with content 3. **Maintained Compatibility**: Works with existing business logic 4. **Predictable Scaling**: Context growth in 8192-token increments 5. **Smart Updates**: Context size updates are optimized to reduce unnecessary model reloads ## Future Considerations 1. Fine-tune buffer ratio based on usage patterns 2. Add monitoring for context window utilization 3. Consider language-specific token counting optimizations 4. Implement adaptive threshold based on conversation patterns 5. Add metrics for context size update frequency --------- Co-authored-by: Kevin Hu --- rag/llm/chat_model.py | 99 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- 1 file changed, 75 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) diff --git a/rag/llm/chat_model.py b/rag/llm/chat_model.py index f00915dd2..46ea7b14e 100644 --- a/rag/llm/chat_model.py +++ b/rag/llm/chat_model.py @@ -179,7 +179,41 @@ class Base(ABC): except Exception: pass return 0 + + def _calculate_dynamic_ctx(self, history): + """Calculate dynamic context window size""" + def count_tokens(text): + """Calculate token count for text""" + # Simple calculation: 1 token per ASCII character + # 2 tokens for non-ASCII characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) + total = 0 + for char in text: + if ord(char) < 128: # ASCII characters + total += 1 + else: # Non-ASCII characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) + total += 2 + return total + # Calculate total tokens for all messages + total_tokens = 0 + for message in history: + content = message.get("content", "") + # Calculate content tokens + content_tokens = count_tokens(content) + # Add role marker token overhead + role_tokens = 4 + total_tokens += content_tokens + role_tokens + + # Apply 1.2x buffer ratio + total_tokens_with_buffer = int(total_tokens * 1.2) + + if total_tokens_with_buffer <= 8192: + ctx_size = 8192 + else: + ctx_multiplier = (total_tokens_with_buffer // 8192) + 1 + ctx_size = ctx_multiplier * 8192 + + return ctx_size class GptTurbo(Base): def __init__(self, key, model_name="gpt-3.5-turbo", base_url="https://api.openai.com/v1"): @@ -469,7 +503,7 @@ class ZhipuChat(Base): class OllamaChat(Base): def __init__(self, key, model_name, **kwargs): -
