Description

Currently the vector index is completely in memory and will be constructed from scratch when an instance is recreated on same path. But saving a snapshot on the disk will speed that up.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the vector index is constructed in memory and how an instance is recreated from the same path. Determine where a disk snapshot would be stored and loaded, then verify that reopening an existing path reuses the snapshot instead of rebuilding the index.
