Moving comments from PR description here: Supporting FP16 is beneficial for decreasing memory footprint of large dataset, therefore it is planned to revert this PR in the future and add the missing interfaces. #264 adds the missing pieces to run vector search with FP16 data, but it comes with ~ 50 MB increase in binary size:
It is somewhat surprising that we have so large binary size increase, all these components shall be just thin wrappers around functions compiled in separate object files. |
