Hi Mattias, hi Michael
Thank you for answering me

@Mattias: I was sure about what you wrote about relationships and influence 
on algorithms, but now I'm confident that I was right :). But, on the other 
side, now I'm totally confused on the reason why the AStar algorithm has so 
poor performance (at least in my case); on Stackoverflow I had a rapid chat 
with Stefan and he was surprised too about this poor performance....and 
honestly I don't know what else to try to improve performance (I posted a 
topic where you can find a sample project on github and test what I tested)
@Michael: I know that BOTH direction is for querying and/or traverser...I 
was wrong in writing :)
