Yes it is a quite a niche and strange query technique but looked cute

Interesting tid-bit, one Mr. Sergey Brin published this in 1995

"Near Neighbor Search in Large Metric Spaces"

So I'm curious, because I had been planning on using a VP tree for something I'm mulling over. I could see stormy waters though for large dimensions.

Seriously interested to hear any feedback from people who have tried it. Any recommendations for what to do instead?
