Five years ago I was absolutely frustrated with the state of Graph databases and libraries and tried putting several non-Graph DBMSs behind a NetworkX-like Python interface <https://github.com/unum-cloud/NetworkXum>.

When benchmarked, Neo4J crashed on every graph I’ve tried <https://www.unum.cloud/blog/2020-11-12-graphs>, making SQLite and Postgres much more viable options even for network-processing workloads. So I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that people actually use pgRouting and Supabase in that setting.

With the rise of Postgres-compatible I’m wondering if it’s worth refreshing the project. Similarly, there are now more Graph DBs like MemGraph compatible with CYPHER, which should probably work much better than Neo4J.
