This defines the type of cache used to store the nodes
and relationships. The following are the types of
cache:
•
none
: Do not use any cache.
•
soft
: LRU cache using soft references.
Used when the application load isn't very
high.
•
weak
: LRU cache using weak references.
Used when the application is under heavy
load with lots of reads and traversals.
•
strong
: Will hold on to all data that gets
loaded and never release it. Use it when
your graph is small enough to fit in
memory.
Cache_type
