Med student seeking whole-library book search: Cognee's graph memory beats plain RAG so far

A medical undergraduate asks how to store an entire textbook library for precise LLM retrieval without uploading books to Claude/ChatGPT. Obsidian notes and .md memory layers failed; various RAG repos choke on limited hardware. Current best: Cognee (RAG + graph memory) with kiro-cli, though ingesting even one book freezes the system. Commenters point to Mem0 and Letta as alternatives.
