 [Ollama uses a 2k context window by default](https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/faq.md#how-can-i-specify-the-context-window-size),
 which is very small for working with aider.
+Unlike most other LLM servers, Ollama does not throw an error if you submit
+a request that exceeds the context window.
+Instead, it just silently truncates the request by discarding the "oldest" messages
+in the chat to make it fit within the context window.
+
+All of the Ollama results above were collected with at least an 8k context window, which
+is large enough to attempt all the coding problems in the benchmark.
 
 You can set the Ollama server's context window with a 
 [`.aider.model.settings.yml` file](https://aider.chat/docs/config/adv-model-settings.html#model-settings)
