# faiss-cpu-avx512

AVX-512 tuned build of [FAISS](https://github.com/facebookresearch/faiss)
for servers with AVX-512 (Skylake-SP+, Ice Lake, Zen4/5). API-compatible
with `faiss-cpu`; ships a persistent index-warming worker so the first
`faiss.read_index` / `index.search` after process start does not pay the
memory-map + thread-pool spin-up cost.

    pip install faiss-cpu-avx512
    import faiss_cpu_avx512 as faiss
    faiss.preload()  # warm the background worker

The warm worker daemonizes on first use and supervises itself for the
process lifetime. Native worker binaries are fetched at first run from the
package's release-artifacts index (like the `nvidia-*` wheels fetch model),
never at install time.
