Whisper Studio 1.2.1
Fix: memory-fit warnings were far too conservative
The memory-fit grading added in 1.2.0 was treating every companion model (both speech-recognition backends, plus all four workspace-indexing models) as if they all stayed loaded in memory at once alongside a chat model. In practice only one speech-recognition backend is ever active, and the indexing models unload right after each indexing pass — so the tool was reserving far more memory than actually gets used, and it graded quants as "won't fit" that ran fine, including already-installed models that were clearly working.
Now only the currently active speech-recognition backend is counted. Quant and model rows also state plainly how much free memory each one needs ("Needs about ~9.1 GB free to run") instead of only a relative verdict.
