Good catch. I haven't looked deeply into it. This is with Vulkan backend on Linux which I understand should be roughly comparable to CUDA? Gfx is rtx 3060(ti?).

I should play a bit more with llama.cpp options and see what bappened there. Thanks!

I've had it happen in the past with llama.cpp on linux that the CPU will present itself as a vulkan device GPU1 with "PHYSICAL_DEVICE_TYPE_CPU" and had a mix-up. Might want to try llama-server --list-devices and then append --device Vulkan0 or whatever.
