 Yep.  One of the things that helps a lot is being able to avoid copying
 the graph.  For the Tutte polynomial code, we just make one copy of the
 graph on the initial call, but never copy it afterward.  I found context
 managers useful to manage mutating the graph and restoring it.

 Also, I think the edge selection strategy has a bit of an effect on the
 speed of the chromatic polynomial computation as well.
