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.
Interpolated on config — Meerkat @0.90: mkt-n240000-cctrue-fs16-soar-cfs-eps035 · pgvector HNSW (halfvec) @0.90: hnsw-m24-halfvec · Meerkat @0.95: mkt-n240000-cctrue-fs16-soar-cfs-eps035 · pgvector HNSW (halfvec) @0.95: hnsw-m24-halfvec · Meerkat @0.99: mkt-n240000-cctrue-fs16-soar-cfs-eps025
