v2.0.0 - Major Architecture Overhaul (Physics Engine & Live Sync)

🚀 LocalAI Advisor v2.0.0 — Major Architecture Overhaul

Welcome to the v2.0.0 release of LocalAI Advisor! This major update transitions the recommendation and performance models from static heuristic tables into a physics-grounded inference speed estimator (inspired by llmfit), while adding live Hugging Face intelligence, multi-GPU support, and advanced catalog filtering.

✨ What's New in v2.0.0

• 🎯 Physics-Grounded Inference Speed Estimator (llmfit approach):

  • Decode throughput is now calculated directly from memory bandwidth: tok/s = (Bandwidth × Efficiency) / (Model Size + KV Cache).
  • Built-in memory bandwidth database for ~40 modern GPU models (RTX 50/40/30/20 series, AMD RX 7000/6000, Intel Arc).
  • Amdahl's Law layer offload latency modeling with PCIe transfer overhead for hybrid GPU+RAM execution.
  • Mixture of Experts (MoE) support: memory footprint based on total parameters, token rate based on active routing experts.

• 🎛️ Multi-GPU & RAM Bandwidth Detection:

  • Automatically aggregates VRAM across all dedicated GPUs in your system (total_dedicated_vram_gb).
  • WMI physical memory inspection detects RAM clock speed (MHz), memory type (DDR4/DDR5), and memory channels to compute exact system RAM throughput for CPU modes.

• 🌐 Live Hugging Face Auto-Sync & Enrichment:

  • Automatic background sync upon launch if cache is older than 30 minutes.
  • Real-time compatibility verification against your system's hardware limits.
  • Model release year extraction displayed on model cards (e.g. DeepSeek R1 Distill Qwen 14B (2025)).
  • Live "Last synced from Hugging Face: X min ago" status indicator in the status bar.

• 🔍 Advanced Catalog Filtering:

  • Toggle switch to filter / show uncensored and abliterated models.
  • Date range filter dropdown (All Time, Last 1 Month, Last 6 Months, Last 1 Year).

• 📐 Responsive Desktop Interface:

  • Disk cards and featured model cards dynamically adapt between 2, 3, and 4 columns based on window width.
  • In-app automatic update notification when a new GitHub release is published.
