Summary

We recently published benchmarking results for RedisGraph and responded to criticism from TigerGraph regarding the accuracy of our findings. We initially introduced a parallel requests benchmark to better represent real-world scenarios, but incorrectly extrapolated benchmark times for TigerGraph. To correct this, we re-executed the full benchmark against TigerGraph, revealing that RedisGraph is 5-15 times faster than TigerGraph in most cases, with the biggest difference seen in one-hop queries. Our new results also show that average query times are a more accurate metric for this test, with RedisGraph's average query times being 5-20 times faster than TigerGraph under parallel load. We're making our modified benchmarking code available to everyone and documenting known issues to increase transparency and accuracy.
