Benchmark (CPU)

Environment:

Vocab size: 26,155
Embedding dimension: 256
Hardware: CPU

Average query latency: maybe faster this is PipeOwl-1.6-jp benchmark

PipeOwl: 0.0036 sec BM25: 0.0421 sec Embedding: 0.0283 sec FAISS Flat: 0.0324 sec FAISS HNSW: 0.0230 sec

Comparison	Speedup
vs BM25	11.7× faster
vs Embedding	7.9× faster
vs FAISS Flat	9.0× faster
vs FAISS HNSW	6.4× faster

PipeOwl shows 6–12× lower latency compared with common retrieval baselines in this setup.
