Create the index *after* the table has some data 2. Choose an appropriate number of lists - a good place to start is `rows / 1000` for up to 1M rows and `sqrt(rows)` for over 1M rows -3. When querying, specify an appropriate number of [probes](#query-options) (higher is better for recall, lower is better for speed) - a good place to start is `lists / 10` for up to 1M rows and `sqrt(lists)` for over 1M rows +3.
