FAQPage Schema

What's the best way to improve vector search latency in AgentDB?▼

Accelerate vector search by implementing HNSW indexing, which uses hierarchical navigable small world graphs to improve search performance by 150x to 12,500x compared to flat scanning.

How can I increase data ingestion throughput for high-volume vector workloads?▼

Benchmark your vector database configuration by running the command npx agentdb@latest benchmark, which analyzes your current setup and identifies specific opportunities for performance tuning.

What are the Node.js and AgentDB version requirements for running performance tuning operations?▼

Yes, AgentDB performance optimization targets memory-constrained environments by utilizing quantization to reduce memory usage and LRU caching to optimize retrieval throughput without excessive resource allocation.

What are the limitations of using HNSW indexing and quantization for vector search?▼

HNSW indexing and quantization trade exact search accuracy for speed and memory efficiency, meaning search results are approximate, requiring careful parameter tuning to balance recall against performance gains.
