[D] What features would you like to see in a vector search database?
After playing with ANNOY and FAISS for a little while, I hit exactly that problem. I ended up writing two Python libraries for fast "object search by metadata" - FilterBox and LiteBox. They are both designed to complement vector search, as they only deal with the metadata portion of the objects and leave the vectors alone.

Does anyone here use sqlite just to do quick queries, because it is easier than loading to another rdb?
Yep. I even wrote a container called LiteBox to make it quicker syntax-wise.
