Peter, I don't think you are overlooking something. The code is very clean but the way the problem is implemented it catastrophic :-) (This is nothing against the author. At least, he did it!)
The code performs a full substructure search for *every* possible path (length 2 to 6) instead of recording pathes while performing a breadth-first-search. It would be easy to adapt the breadth-first-search output of my cdk fingerprinter implementation for this purpose, but at the moment, I don't have time for that.
