Recommended action: Throttle client concurrency and retry on 503 with backoff; raise OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL if memory allows (RAM scales with NUM_PARALLEL x context length) or OLLAMA_MAX_QUEUE.
Option: Bound client concurrency and tune server parallelism [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: High-concurrency workloads
Steps:
1. Limit concurrent requests per client (semaphore)
2. Retry 503 with exponential backoff
3. Set OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL / OLLAMA_MAX_QUEUE on the server
Expected: No queue overflow
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
