200k synchronous (processing everything) in realtime.

Bow if youre in the cloud, on a dataset, or joysticking so you dont care about up to date updates, so much larger possible.

Async extends that and basically doesnt queue up scans so you’re always live for so much large maps, but youll have to watch out after 200k that youre not going to fast and not getting a dense output, per standards for cartographer karto, etc. im not sure i know any synchronous slam implementations that are main stream for this lag reason but we spend it up really nicely to fit really any retail/not insane amazon warehouse size.
