Turbocharging Vector Databases using Modern SSDs
Summary: SSD-aware HNSW optimizations for pgvector combine io_uring parallel I/O, spatially ordered insertion, and locality-preserving colocation. They deliver up to 11.1× higher throughput, 3.23× better cache hit ratio, and 98.4% faster index builds. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
