Haha, I almost spit out my coffee when I saw how poorly we performed here! Reading the code, it's kind of incredible that Neo4j even competes - all the databases benchmarked are running with 25 concurrent database connections:
When I modify it locally to just set {maxConnectionPoolSize: 25}, like how the other databases are set up, I get roughly an order better performance. neighbors2 went from 0.0226ms to 0.0068ms, for instance. Single write sync went from 3.36415ms to 0.77549ms avg/op..

Except Neo, which is given a single connection to work with :(

Benchmarking is hard!
