   > I see another action item from this benchmark: I wasn't aligning the 
output inside [this merge 
function](https://github.com/apache/lucene/blob/eb27b14eaa09c53496a50c5944160b4989910882/lucene/core/src/java/org/apache/lucene/codecs/lucene99/Lucene99FlatVectorsWriter.java#L252-L253),
 which is used by HNSW-based vector formats for merging (see that index(s) 
improved in my benchmark, but not force_merge(s) -- which should speed up after 
this additional change?)
   
   Oh good catch!  I wonder what other places might write the flat vectors?
   
   Is the alignment also (or maybe less) important for the quantized cases?  
(Your results above are for `float32` vectors?)
   
   Maybe at least `luceneutil` could somehow warn if vectors are unaligned 
during its perf testing?
