i'm not sure if it's only me, But whenever i needed graph-db type queries i found much more success with targeted relational database queries. they take a lot longer to implement but perform feasible results (sometimes u might need to buffer a few things, some pre-calculations here and there). (neo4j vs mysql innodb on multiple layered recommender systems)

The thing is that i don't see the point of such a graph db if not for what i just mentioned.

any clarification would be great.
