Maybe just start with the Grateful Dead dataset? I think it might be sufficiently complex to yield a good test of the different approaches we have now. If not, maybe we need to generate something artificial. Personally, I'd love to see a JFR that executes the same traversal with each of the three configurations that we now have with a `Thread.sleep()` between them so that we can easily distinguish when one traversal stops and the next starts. Not sure what the traversal (or traversals) needs to be - I guess I'd just like to easily compare what happens from a processing/memory perspective with each of the configurations we've talked about and then true that up with the expectations that we have regarding each configuration that we have. > As far as OLAP goes, what are the expectations there? I was just curious if it all the tests still pass there or not. I'd assume so given that you didn't make changes there, but I just wanted to be sure.
