+## Sleeping on Idle
+
+The server supports an automatic sleep mode that activates after a specified period of inactivity (no incoming tasks). This feature, introduced in [PR #18228](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/18228), can be enabled using the `--sleep-idle-seconds` command-line argument. It works seamlessly in both single-model and multi-model configurations.
+
+When the server enters sleep mode, the model and its associated memory (including the KV cache) are unloaded from RAM to conserve resources. Any new incoming task will automatically trigger the model to reload.
+
+Note that the following endpoints are exempt from being considered as incoming tasks. They do not trigger model reloading and do not reset the idle timer:
+- `GET /health`
+- `GET /props`
+
