🚀 Behold the magical Mantic.sh, a "cognitive code search" that allegedly sifts through half a million files in less time than it takes you to sneeze 🤧. But worry not, dear reader, as it skips the brain-bending embeddings – because who needs those silly things, anyway? 🙄✨

🚀🎉 Wow, hold the presses! Someone just discovered that newer, faster tech makes things... wait for it... faster! 📈💾 Meanwhile, unsuspecting readers are left to ponder the cosmic mystery of why on earth this obvious #revelation is masquerading as an "insightful" blog post. 🙄

Faster Index I/O with NVMe SSDs

The Marginalia Search index has been partially rewritten to perform much better, using new data structures designed to make better use of modern hardware. This post will cover the new design, and will also touch upon some of the unexpected and unintuitive performance characteristics of NVMe SSDs when it comes to read sizes. The index is already fairly large, but can sometimes feel smaller than it is, and paradoxically, query performance is a big part of why.
