While i'm in vacation i have some times to play with neo. After some cleaning and testing, i'm finally populating the database with "real" data. My code is not 100% fail-safe, but the program that populate the database is running non-stop since 3 days, without a single error. The next step will be the exploitation of the content of the database. Neoclipse gave up a long time ago, i am expecting around 20.000 nodes and ... mmm... a million relationship (with different type) ? the database directory is currently 4.5GB ... i hope i didn't forgot a transaction somewhere that wrap everything and will rollback ~4GB of data if the program die :( i don't really understand the behaviour of the database if i have nested transaction. or what the database do if the program crash... it clean all un-finished transaction from DB, right ? Ho and ...
