All values are taken at exactly the stated recall: each configuration's own sweep is log-interpolated between its two surrounding measured points (measured values are used verbatim on an exact hit) and the best configuration at that recall is shown — values are never interpolated across different configurations. “—” means no single sweep spans that recall; nothing is extrapolated. Recall is distance-based (ann-benchmarks, tie-aware). Insert/update/delete workloads are not measured.
