Could you build this?
No Executing billion-scale vector similarity search on consumer hardware requires deep systems engineering, advanced low-level vector quantization algorithms, and cache-friendly SIMD Rust programming.
What it would actually take: Requires an embedded database architecture in Rust using advanced quantization (Product Quantization, RaBitQ, or Scalar Quantization) to compress high-dimensional vectors to fit in memory or SSD. It demands custom disk-backed approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) graph indices (like DiskANN), manual SIMD intrinsics (AVX-512/NEON), memory-mapped I/O, and fine-grained concurrency controls.
