Their performance was pretty good in what it was optimized for: navigational access. Query performance was horrendous.
This is somewhat the mirror image of relational database at the same level of maturity: they were great for queries, but navigational access sucked.

couple notes:

a "standard" rdbms on the backend (oracle/sql server/db2)

Probably the second biggest thing (after fear of change) that caused

tool> work with it? No!?!?! How do you expect to sell it?"
