Think of your domain model graph as a kind of index. Traversing that should generally be faster than a generic index like lucene. Of course some things do not graph well, and you should use lucene for those. But if you can find something with a graph traversal, that is likely the way to go.
Also you should think of structuring the graph to suit the queries you plan to perform. Then you will optimize the traversals.
