Neo4j 1.8.M05 – In the Details

Cypher is Neo4j's data language, familiar yet fresh for creating and querying data. Updates include improved multi-line query support in the web interface, new path identifiers, enhanced string literals, fixes for issues like double optional relationships and missing dependencies. The kernel has been optimized with increased multithreaded performance and simplified logical log configuration options. Indexing improvements include removing unnecessary cache size parameters and reducing contention when accessing index searchers. Neo4j 1.8.M05 is now available for immediate download on the website, along with provisioning on Heroku and discussion channels.
