Three independent rc.5 lifecycles on 50K 1536-dimensional vectors; historical peer references.

Methodology scope · protocol · interpretation

Subject and execution

Official v0.2.1-rc.5, commit 43fda0ba4684163a3ee563f18fd4ad61849003cf, unchanged Linux ARM64 release executable. Runtime: rootless Podman 6.1.1 on Apple M4 Max, 10 VM CPUs and 24 GiB VM memory. The build is identified as the official release; compiler optimization flags are not independently asserted.

Only Antfly was measured in this run. Retained peer rows have their original versions and evidence dates; they are historical references, not a matched runtime cohort or evidence of a release-to-release speedup.

Vector protocol

Three independently built indexes per workload. Search parameters are selected only on the deterministic calibration partition; publication queries use the disjoint holdout without rebuilding. All three selected search values are retained. Serial latency and peak throughput are different operating points; peak QPS is the best measured concurrency point, not serial QPS. Final rows have zero request errors.

One completed same-rc.5 lifecycle per workload was reused through validated cache materialization; four additional fresh lifecycles completed the matrix. No rc.4 measurements were reused. An earlier 1M attempt cell was overwritten by the old retry loop; its combined client output remains retained and the attempt is excluded from final metrics.

Resources and retained evidence

Demand is container cgroup-v2 anon plus shmem, excluding reclaimable file cache. Cache-inclusive peaks are reported separately. Resource point estimates are arithmetic means of three lifecycle peaks, with retained min–max ranges. Final database volume is complete writable database-root allocated bytes at the verified stopped-final barrier, not archive or executable size. Packages retain hashes of the original result, provenance and checksum receipt; source files were verified against those receipts before packaging.

Official v0.2.1-rc.5, commit 43fda0ba4684163a3ee563f18fd4ad61849003cf, unchanged Linux ARM64 release executable. Runtime: rootless Podman 6.1.1 on Apple M4 Max, 10 VM CPUs and 24 GiB VM memory. The build is identified as the official release; compiler optimization flags are not independently asserted.

Three independent rc.5 lifecycles on a 1% tenant filter over 50K vectors.

Methodology scope · protocol · interpretation

Subject and execution

Official v0.2.1-rc.5, commit 43fda0ba4684163a3ee563f18fd4ad61849003cf, unchanged Linux ARM64 release executable. Runtime: rootless Podman 6.1.1 on Apple M4 Max, 10 VM CPUs and 24 GiB VM memory. The build is identified as the official release; compiler optimization flags are not independently asserted.

Only Antfly was measured in this run. Retained peer rows have their original versions and evidence dates; they are historical references, not a matched runtime cohort or evidence of a release-to-release speedup.

Filtered protocol

50K 1536-dimensional vectors, a 1% tenant filter (500 candidates), top 100, 200 calibration queries and 800 disjoint holdout queries. One shard; calibration selected search value 0.35 for each lifecycle. Select the first completed attempt from each of three independent trial slots, not the fastest attempt. All six completed attempts were validated; extras are retained but excluded. Recall and nDCG are 1.0, with zero request and unaccounted errors. Peak-concurrency latency is not serial latency. The completion timestamp is receipt finalization, not an inferred elapsed benchmark duration.

Resources and retained evidence

Demand is container cgroup-v2 anon plus shmem, excluding reclaimable file cache. Cache-inclusive peaks are reported separately. Resource point estimates are arithmetic means of three lifecycle peaks, with retained min–max ranges. Final database volume is complete writable database-root allocated bytes at the verified stopped-final barrier, not archive or executable size. Packages retain hashes of the original result, provenance and checksum receipt; source files were verified against those receipts before packaging.

Deployment artifacts

Checksum-verified official Linux ARM64 rc.5 release artifacts.

Methodology scope · protocol · interpretation

Subject and execution

Official v0.2.1-rc.5, commit 43fda0ba4684163a3ee563f18fd4ad61849003cf, unchanged Linux ARM64 release executable. Runtime: rootless Podman 6.1.1 on Apple M4 Max, 10 VM CPUs and 24 GiB VM memory. The build is identified as the official release; compiler optimization flags are not independently asserted.

Only Antfly was measured in this run. Retained peer rows have their original versions and evidence dates; they are historical references, not a matched runtime cohort or evidence of a release-to-release speedup.

Artifact protocol

Measure the exact publisher release archive and its extracted static executable in bytes, and verify SHA-256 identities. Download bytes and executable bytes are different metrics. No database-volume or runtime-memory claim is derived from either. Historical peer OCI metadata is retained without a fresh registry measurement.

Subject and execution

Official v0.2.1-rc.5, commit 43fda0ba4684163a3ee563f18fd4ad61849003cf, unchanged Linux ARM64 release executable. Runtime: rootless Podman 6.1.1 on Apple M4 Max, 10 VM CPUs and 24 GiB VM memory. The build is identified as the official release; compiler optimization flags are not independently asserted.

Only Antfly was measured in this run. Retained peer rows have their original versions and evidence dates; they are historical references, not a matched runtime cohort or evidence of a release-to-release speedup.

F2 protocol

LSQB-derived SF0.1 endpoint-filtered two-hop lookup: Forum → Post → Tag, returning matching Post IDs. This is an anchored microbenchmark, not an audited LDBC result. Each of three fresh database lifecycles loaded 432,235 nodes and 1,827,523 edges, passed 1,000 correctness parameters, then served 5,000 timed samples. Latency point estimates are medians of the three run-level percentiles; run ranges are retained separately. Load and readiness time are not query latency. No Pokec, internal fresh-service, restart or convergence results are selected on this card.

Resources and retained evidence

Demand is container cgroup-v2 anon plus shmem, excluding reclaimable file cache. Cache-inclusive peaks are reported separately. Resource point estimates are arithmetic means of three lifecycle peaks, with retained min–max ranges. Final database volume is complete writable database-root allocated bytes at the verified stopped-final barrier, not archive or executable size. Packages retain hashes of the original result, provenance and checksum receipt; source files were verified against those receipts before packaging.
