Should we use safetensors? #25

Closed johko closed 12 months ago

johko commented 12 months ago

I wondered if we should add an official recommendation to use the safetensors saving format wherever possible.

But I have to admit, that I'm not that familiar with it, so I don't know how much overhead it would be in cases where we cannot use a HF library like transformers.

@johko I think it's fine, I don't have any strong opinion 😊

ok, I guess it is also not that important for now. We'll just stick to whatever people use for now to keep complexity low
