The bigger the model the better the outcome, mistral showed to be very good but sometimes it is acting weird, llama3:8b (instruct-fp16) was amazing. Please note that LLM/SLM require (a significant amount of) memory, with a minimum of 5-8 GB for small and 15-30 GB for middle-sized models or even more. You don't need a 30gb (file size) model if llama3:8b for example produces a good outcome then it is alright, I tested mistral and llama3 so test it yourself.
