Now we need to come up with a high-density solution for many nodes, as Peter H stated.

Cool, would be perfect to be able to even use that one to show Node spaces, maybe via some protocol or a REST API or so ... /peter -- GTalk: neubauer.peter Skype peter.neubauer ICQ 18762544 GTalk neubauer.peter Phone +46704 106975 LinkedIn http://www.linkedin.com/in/neubauer http://www.neo4j.org - New Energy for Data - the Graph Database. http://www.ops4j.org - New Energy for OSS Communities - Open Participation Software. http://www.qi4j.org - New Energy for Java - Domain Driven Development. _______________________________________________ Neo mailing list User@lists.neo4j.org https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
