> There has been talk of adding a "flat" codec to Lucene, that simply takes advantage of quantization and stores the vectors not in the HNSW graph. In that instance, what would efSearch mean? @benwtrent I really excited to see what are developing on the `flat` codec part. But coming back to `ef_search` as a parameter, I feel this is an essential parameter for HNSW. So, if we can abstract this and any other parameter that can come in future for any algorithm in a class `SearchParameters` or `VectorSearchParameters` it will solve this use case and also gives the flexibility to add new algorithm related search parameters later on. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
