@msokolov the reason for backlinks is because nodes didn't find its nearest neighbors from ALL the vectors that will be in the index (e.g. an already indexed node didn't know about the new node...). If we searched all the other segments (of course, we would need to translate ordinals), the vector can find its nearest neighbors given the entire corpus. Meaning back-linking is no longer necessary, as it already considered the entire corpus. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
