My Cypher Query Takes Too Long. What can I do ?

The purpose of this talk given at NODES 2024 is to

give general understanding of how the cypher query planner works and the kind of things you need to know to analyses what takes times in a query processing
give some insight on how to use EXPLAIN and PROFILE to identify what takes time in running a specific query
give examples for you to build a better understanding of how cypher works under the hood

Fine-tuning for real time constrains or other very demanding performance constrains will NOT be addressed. This talk is for general understanding of difficulties to traverse graphs, hints about how the query planner plans query processing and some guidelines about the different parameters query processing time depends upon.
