How does the performance change if you create the necessary edges
beforehand?

In graph-tool things are faster than in networkx when they are delegated
to C++, otherwise this should be comparable in speed. In the case of
adding many edges, this is done by using the Graph.add_edge_list()
function, which runs in C++ internally. In your example, this should
provide a massive speed-up.

Best,
