Hi, I'd like to know if people on the list have experience with the performance characteristics of the available backends for elephant. I am not asking for detailed measurements and performance differences of few percent but typical usage patterns where you can predict that one backend will likely outperform the others.
Background: Our application that makes heavy use of elephant/bdb and the association feature in the unstable branch is too slow by at least one order of magnitude. We obviously need to profile it first before we start any refactoring or changing the elephant configuration, and most likely we will find that our application code used for the data import uses an inefficient algorithm. But it might be helpful for interpreting the profile data when we have some background knowledge about the performance characteristics one can expect from elephant and its various backends.
