Thanks for sharing that. Interesting note about the static imports.
that's been such a long standing issue for Gremlin with Groovy. Nice to
know there is a way around it.

as for some "suggested improvements" i'd just note the following bits:

* in this example:

var (name, country) = ['name', 'country'].collect { es.property(it).value()
}
var (at, event, time) = ['at', 'event', 'time'].collect {
swim1.property(it).value() }

you could simplify to "value(it)" rather than calling "property(it).value()"

* for this example:

var recordSetInHeat = g.V().hasLabel('Swim')
    .filter { it.get().property('event').value().startsWith('Heat') }
    .values('at').toSet()

i think it would be preferable to use Gremlin syntax for the filter:

g.V().has('Swim','event', startingWith('Heat')).values('at')
