Description

When the script is killed while a model is loading, Ollama server will detect that the client connection was closed and abort loading and associated request. A method to achieve this gracefully would be very useful, especially when loading very large model. I tried calling Client._client.close() but without success.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the Client API and the underlying Client._client connection referenced in the issue. Determine how model-loading requests expose connection closure, then verify that a public stop method aborts loading gracefully without requiring callers to access the private client; the issue provides no test or file path to run.
