SIMD Optimization

AVX2/AVX512 (x86_64) and NEON (ARM64) optimization with prefetching.

Overview

NeuronDB uses SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) instructions for faster vector operations.

Supported Architectures

• x86_64: AVX2 and AVX512 with FMA instructions
• ARM64: NEON with dotprod extension

Automatic Optimization

SIMD optimizations are enabled automatically at compile time:

Copy
-- Operations automatically use SIMD
SELECT embedding <-> query_vector AS distance
FROM documents
ORDER BY distance
LIMIT 10;

Performance

SIMD provides significant speedup:

• 2-4x faster for distance calculations
• 3-5x faster for batch operations
