we've spent a fair bit of time on neo4j and found it to be just too slow
to really do what we needed :( The REST API is quite limited, while its
extendable that would be a bit of work and its native access methods only
really work well via jruby.

We looked in storing the graphs in some document database after post 
processing them into a more palatable format and this seemed to work
ok but it does feel like a hack.
