   I would guess that either there is a bug or you happen to be testing with a 
really unusual dataset.  PQ is fundamentally a lossy compression and can't 
magically create similarity that didn't exist in the original.
   
   > Regardless, is there any oversampling that is occurring when PQ is enabled 
in JVector?
   
   Today it's up to the caller (so on the Cassandra side, in Astra) but it's 
possible that it should move into JVector.
   
   > Additionally the graph building probably cannot be done with the PQ'd 
vectors.
   
   I suppose it's not impossible that you could compress first and then build 
but I have not seen anyone do it yet.  JVector follows DiskANN's lead and 
builds the graph using uncompressed vectors.
