RAGFlow Harness Hits 91% on FRAMES With BM25 and Grep Only
Accuracy on agentic retrieval benchmarks may already be saturated, so the real design trade-off is token cost versus latency rather than recall. Builders of agentic RAG systems should benchmark indexes on tokens and latency instead of assuming richer structures lift accuracy. The 38% average token reduction with a decision gate keeping latency near 30 seconds offers a concrete configuration to test against dense-retrieval baselines.
