@Anushkaaaxxn@247pmstudio FAISS is a library, not a DB — so this is likely just search() kernel time on a tiny cached subset, not real retrieval on 13.68M rows.
Not hating — just saying the number doesn't add up for a student project with standard hardware.
@Anushkaaaxxn@247pmstudio 0.09ms on 13.68M vectors with FAISS?
Quick math: At 768d FP32, that's ~42GB of raw vector data. Just reading that from system RAM at DDR4-3200 bandwidth (~25GB/s) takes ~1.7ms — and that's before any computation.
