snkcld·12 anni fa·discussfor an approach using neo4j, check out cadet! (my project) cadet is more just a jruby wrapper around neo4j, but one can use it to interact with neo4j (and thus come up with recommendations without touching a line of java, or even cypher )still in progress, and id love any input! http://github.com/karabijavad/cadethttp://github.com/karabijavad/congress-graph
snkcld·12 anni fa·discussi wasnt expecting that answer...how large was your friends table? maybe it was quick when doing friends of friends because the friends table was already wholly loaded into memory?i wonder if your relationship traversals spanned across different tables, if postgres would still be as quick?
