Hmmm. So Luca says lightweight edges are much faster, but Riccardo says his 
benchmark results show no difference since OrientDB 2.0. Surely this is a 
use-case issue? I've been personally very interested in understanding more 
about the use-cases of lightweight vs. regular edges. I've been scouring 
this group, but most of what I find is either to vague and inconsistent. Is 
there anything "official" that goes into this so I can understand it better?

Also, on a related topic, one of the examples that shows up a lot is the 
use of a "weight" property on a regular edge (and not too much else). Is 
there any documentation anywhere that discusses the purpose and use of this 
property and/or edge properties in general?
