HI Abhi,
In my project, when I persist an entity I create a new graph for each entity persisted. Will the performance degrade due to the huge no of graphs crated?
This depends how queries are written and what is the distribution of the data is.
Principally performance would not degrade with large numbers of graphs, however the database size would be a bit larger due to the number of duplicate triples in many distinct graphs. As long as you have adequate memory in your system, this should not matter.
Without knowing more about your data, the biggest problem might come from performing queries without a graph, as this would return duplicates if triple patterns are contained in different graphs. Intuitively this might trigger you to use a DISTINCT clause, but on a large result set this will have an impact on performance.
