Better, Faster, and More Scalable Neo4j than ever before by Philip Rathle.
From the post:
Neo4j 2.2 aims to be our fastest and most scalable release ever. With Neo4j 2.2 our engineering team introduces massive enhancements to the internal architecture resulting in higher performance and scalability.
This first milestone (or beta release) pulls all of these new elements together, so that you can “dial it up to 11″ with your applications. You can download it here for your testing.
Philip highlights:
- Highly Concurrent Performance
- Transactional & Batch Write Performance
- Cypher Performance (includes a Cost-Based Optimizer)
BTW, there is news of a new and improved batch loader: neo4j-import.
I included the direct link because the search interface for the milestone release acts oddly.
If you enter (with quotes) “neo4j-import” (not an unreasonable query), results are returned for: import, neo4j. I haven’t tried other queries that include a hyphen. You?
