If in initializeDB you comment out:
ipEngine1.SetVariable("pred_file", predfile);
ipEngine1.Execute(@"db.load_predicates_file(pred_file)");
does it get much faster? If it doesn't then the problem is squarely an
IronPython problem and we'll need to investigate further.
The more static one has some issues... The GetObjectArray() call will be
really expensive if your edges grow to be very big (it'll copy the array).
Maybe that's what you need to do here though (and it looks like edge just grows
unbounded as it never gets cleared).
You also might be able to get rid of the Ops.GetEnumerator call for the Tuple,
not that that should be very expensive though.
NodesCollection is a StringCollection?
Also, are you taking your performance measurements at the console, or in an
imported py file? In general our performance is much better in imported files
than it is at the console.
Do you want to help develop Dynamic languages on CLR?

It just passes an else and and catch. I posted the rough draft of the
test method here if you wish to see in more detail
http://joeswammi.com/projects/InitializeDB.txt
That test method above is a quickly modified version of an another
method that actually passes out a StringCollection. Sorry, I haven't
modified the code to be more reflective of what it is actually doing.
But I believe I have captured the times correctly. And it seems to
successfully create the semantic network of the predicate files within
the PythonEngine.
>And I'm having trouble parsing "but things slow down significantly

this just doing a set variable, or are you looping over the collection
and doing a set variable one at a time?

Yes, here is a test method I used using unpp()
http://joeswammi.com/projects/load_predicate_files.txt
Ideally, this C# load_predicate_files() method would actually create
the semantic dictionaries instead of passing the StringCollection
nodes to just unpp().
I did try a more static approach...
http://joeswammi.com/projects/load_predicate_files2.txt
But I didn't like the results, could be my own fault though. It was
very slow esp. when it reached around 3000 predicate lines from the
StringCollection.
