+    //    Setting the shard size to 1 will be fine, it's the granularity with which data is shuffled/loaded (bigger values are faster).
+    // 3. Create a GGML graph for your model with no_alloc == true. Use two separate contexts for the tensors.
+    //    The first context should contain the model parameters and inputs and be allocated statically in user code.
+    //    The second context should contain all other tensors and will be (re)allocated automatically.
+    //    Due to this automated allocation the data of the second context is not defined when accessed in user code.
+    //    Note that the second dimension of the inputs/outputs are interpreted as the number of datapoints in those tensors.
