Except that it wasn't about people at all? I was just referring to a _type_ of query

  What kind of data was it, of I may ask? Graph databases have a very narrow usecase, and it's almost always in relation to people - at least ime. Though the data type isn't really important for the performance question, the amount of data selected is. So a 6-level depth graph of connections that only connect 2-3 entities would never get into performance issues. You'd be able to go way beyond that too with such a narrow window. (3 entity Connections on 6 level join would come out to I believe ~750 rows) If you're modeling something like movies instead, with >10 actors per production you're looking at millions of rows.
