Very interesting, thanks for sharing. This has a lot of nods to Turbopuffer's architecture [0]. My impression is they've spent a lot of time optimizing at the hardware/firmware layer to achieve extremely fast query results.

Inarticulately - how ~close is OpenData Vector to Turbopuffer in terms of performance today and where are the major gaps + mountains to scale?

Really excited to keep an eye on the repos, great read!
