What is the max number of dimensions supported for a vector?

There is currently no cap. We will probably impose a similar cap to Qdrant or Pinecone some time soon ~64k. There's obviously a performance trade off as you go up, but we hope to massively offset this by doing binary quantisation within the next couple of months.

there is also the fact that the more dimensions you have for embedded data the more diluted the embedding becomes so it is unusual to go anywhere near the limits of vector length!
