Each configuration is measured at its operating point for the target: its fastest sweep point whose recall reaches it. Values are measured there, not interpolated, so the recall can be above the target. Each cell is wall-clock QPS over the whole run, then in parentheses the throughput while every client is busy, which leaves out the drain at the end, and below them the p50 and p95 query latency over all clients. With more than one client, N× is the speedup: wall-clock QPS over the same configuration's single-client wall-clock QPS at that target. Ideal scaling matches the client count until the host's CPUs saturate, after which it flattens. Clients are concurrent connections from rekall, and CPU counts are the rekall host's. Wall-clock QPS includes rekall's own work between queries, so the 1-client row reads a little below QPS at recall, which comes from query latency. Recall is distance-based (ann-benchmarks, tie-aware).

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.
