Hey Chris, I've just added support for passing in extra JVM args, it's available as of this commit: https://github.com/neo4j/python-embedded/commit/d41950f8c7e6c65d67f60868976e1864a496a2ea
Documentation will pop up in an hour or so here: http://docs.neo4j.org/chunked/snapshot/python-embedded-reference-core.html This feature will be available as of the 1.5 release, due later this week. If you want to get access to it right away, you can build neo4j-embedded directly from source, the code is available here: https://github.com/neo4j/python-embedded See the readme for how to build from source. Thanks for bringing this up!
