Ah.  Just so I'm clear on this -- the database resides in storage space, but
since I'm loading every value of the database into a graph, then I'm
effectively creating a copy of the database in dynamic memory, which is very
limited in size on some devices?

Is dynamic memory faster than storage memory?

For reading, dynamic and storage memory is equivalent. For writing, memory on the dynamic heap can be written much quicker, as you don't have to go through pointer validation and memory protection.
