+## FAQ
+
+### When is it necessary to create an ANN vector index.
+
+`LanceDB` has manually tuned SIMD code for computing vector distances.
+In our benchmarks, computing 100K pairs of 1K dimension vectors only take less than 20ms.
+For small dataset (<100K rows) or the applications which can accept 100ms latency, vector indices are usually not necessary.
+
+For large-scale or higher dimension vectors, it is beneficial to create vector index.
+
+### How big is my index, and how many memory will it take.
+
+In LanceDB, all vector indices are disk-based, meaning that when responding to a vector query, only the relevant pages from the index file are loaded from disk and cached in memory. Additionally, each sub-vector is usually encoded into 1 byte PQ code.
+
+For example, with a 1024-dimension dataset, if we choose `num_sub_vectors=64`, each sub-vector has `1024 / 64 = 16` float32 numbers.
+Product quantization can lead to approximately `16 * sizeof(float32) / 1 = 64` times of space reduction.
+
+### How to choose `num_partitions` and `num_sub_vectors` for `IVF_PQ` index.
+
+`num_partitions` is used to decide how many partitions the first level `IVF` index uses.
+Higher number of partitions could lead to more efficient I/O during queries and better accuracy, but it takes much more time to train.
+On `SIFT-1M` dataset, our benchmark shows that keeping each partition 1K-4K rows lead to a good latency / recall.
+
+`num_sub_vectors` decides how many Product Quantization code to generate on each vector. Because
+Product Quantization is a lossy compression of the original vector, the more `num_sub_vectors` usually results to
+less space distortion, and thus yield better accuracy. However, similarly, more `num_sub_vectors` causes heavier I/O and
+more PQ computation, thus, higher latency. `dimension / num_sub_vectors` should be aligned with 8 for better SIMD efficiency.

-# Integrations
-
-Built on top of Apache Arrow, `LanceDB` is easy to integrate with the Python ecosystem, including Pandas, PyArrow and DuckDB.
-
-## Pandas and PyArrow
-
-First, we need to connect to a `LanceDB` database.
-
-```py
-
-import lancedb
-
-db = lancedb.connect("data/sample-lancedb")
-```
-
-And write a `Pandas DataFrame` to LanceDB directly.
-
-```py
-import pandas as pd
-
-data = pd.DataFrame({
-    "vector": [[3.1, 4.1], [5.9, 26.5]],
-    "item": ["foo", "bar"],
-    "price": [10.0, 20.0]
-})
-table = db.create_table("pd_table", data=data)
-```
-
-You will find detailed instructions of creating dataset and index in [Basic Operations](basic.md) and [Indexing](ann_indexes.md)
-sections.
-
-
-We can now perform similarity searches via `LanceDB`.
-
-```py
-# Open the table previously created.
-table = db.open_table("pd_table")
-
-query_vector = [100, 100]
-# Pandas DataFrame
-df = table.search(query_vector).limit(1).to_df()
-print(df)
-```
-
-```
-    vector     item  price        score
-0  [5.9, 26.5]  bar   20.0  14257.05957
-```
-
-If you have a simple filter, it's faster to provide a where clause to `LanceDB`'s search query.
-If you have more complex criteria, you can always apply the filter to the resulting pandas `DataFrame` from the search query.
-
-```python
-
-# Apply the filter via LanceDB
-results = table.search([100, 100]).where("price < 15").to_df()
-assert len(results) == 1
-assert results["item"].iloc[0] == "foo"
-
-# Apply the filter via Pandas
-df = results = table.search([100, 100]).to_df()
-results = df[df.price < 15]
-assert len(results) == 1
-assert results["item"].iloc[0] == "foo"
-```
-
-## DuckDB
-
-`LanceDB` works with `DuckDB` via [PyArrow integration](https://duckdb.org/docs/guides/python/sql_on_arrow).
-
-Let us start with installing `duckdb` and `lancedb`.
-
-```shell
-pip install duckdb lancedb
-```
-
-We will re-use the dataset created previously
-
-```python
-import lancedb
-
-db = lancedb.connect("data/sample-lancedb")
-table = db.open_table("pd_table")
-arrow_table = table.to_arrow()
-```
-
-`DuckDB` can directly query the `arrow_table`:
-
-```python
-import duckdb 
-
-duckdb.query("SELECT * FROM arrow_table")
-```
-
-```
-┌─────────────┬─────────┬────────┐
-│   vector    │  item   │ price  │
-│   float[]   │ varchar │ double │
-├─────────────┼─────────┼────────┤
-│ [3.1, 4.1]  │ foo     │   10.0 │
-│ [5.9, 26.5] │ bar     │   20.0 │
-└─────────────┴─────────┴────────┘
-```
-```python
-duckdb.query("SELECT mean(price) FROM arrow_table")
-```
-
-```
-Out[16]:
-┌─────────────┐
-│ mean(price) │
-│   double    │
-├─────────────┤
-│        15.0 │
-└─────────────┘

+# DuckDB
+
+`LanceDB` works with `DuckDB` via [PyArrow integration](https://duckdb.org/docs/guides/python/sql_on_arrow).
+
+Let us start with installing `duckdb` and `lancedb`.
+
+```shell
+pip install duckdb lancedb
+```
+
+We will re-use [the dataset created previously](./arrow.md):
+
+```python
+import pandas as pd
+import lancedb
+
+db = lancedb.connect("data/sample-lancedb")
+data = pd.DataFrame({
+    "vector": [[3.1, 4.1], [5.9, 26.5]],
+    "item": ["foo", "bar"],
+    "price": [10.0, 20.0]
+})
+table = db.create_table("pd_table", data=data)
+arrow_table = table.to_arrow()
+```
+
+`DuckDB` can directly query the `arrow_table`:
+
+```python
+import duckdb
+
+duckdb.query("SELECT * FROM arrow_table")
+```
+
+```
+┌─────────────┬─────────┬────────┐
+│   vector    │  item   │ price  │
+│   float[]   │ varchar │ double │
+├─────────────┼─────────┼────────┤
+│ [3.1, 4.1]  │ foo     │   10.0 │
+│ [5.9, 26.5] │ bar     │   20.0 │
+└─────────────┴─────────┴────────┘
+```
+
+```py
+duckdb.query("SELECT mean(price) FROM arrow_table")
+```
+
+```
+┌─────────────┐
+│ mean(price) │
+│   double    │

-### Search with Vector Index.
+### Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) Search with Vector Index.
+
+To accelerate vector retrievals, it is common to build vector indices.
+A vector index is a data structure specifically designed to efficiently organize and
+search vector data based on their similarity or distance metrics.
+By constructing a vector index, you can reduce the search space and avoid the need
+for brute-force scanning of the entire vector column.
+
+However, fast vector search using indices often entails making a trade-off with accuracy to some extent.
+This is why it is often called **Approximate Nearest Neighbors (ANN)** search, while the Flat Search (KNN)
+always returns 100% recall.
 
 See [ANN Index](ann_indexes.md) for more details.
