This is a super long ai generated slab of text with very little actual info. It doesn’t include any analysis of results.

It does include the phrase “worth listing”.

[larodi → stephantul]

also it somehow analyzes the indices of relational DBs, while most of the world uses vector dbs to keep their vecs. and vector DBs tend to be much faster in this regard.

[wood_spirit → larodi]

Increasingly those specialised vector databases are fading as mainstream normal vanilla databases grow good-enough vector columns and indexes.

What's wrong with https://ann-benchmarks.com/index.html ?

[wood_spirit]

Really look forward to seeing the results.

It would be good if it includes as many things as possible, such as redid, annoy, voyager and lancedb etc and not just oltp sql dbs.

when i saw your comment, i was confused. Then I read the article only to find there's no result shared. Nonsense.
