Alex, You are correct about the "holes" in the store file and I would suggest you export the data and then re-import it again. Neo4j is not optimized for the use case were more data is removed than added over time.
It would be possible to write a compacting utility but since this is not a very common use case I think it is better to put that time into producing a generic export/import dump utility. The plan is to get a export/import utility in place as soon as possible so any input on how that should work, what format to use etc. would be great. -Johan On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 9:23 AM, Alex Averbuch <alex.averb...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey, > Is there a way to compact the data stores (relationships, nodes, properties) > in Neo4j? > I don't mind if its a manual operation. > > I have some datasets that have had a lot of relationships removed from them > but the file is still the same size, so I'm guessing there are a lot of > holes in this file at the moment. > > Would this be hurting lookup performance? > > Cheers, > Alex _______________________________________________ Neo4j mailing list User@lists.neo4j.org https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
