Run MATCH with multiple edges query faster

[wgmayer0]

Is there a way to run this query faster? Maybe a technique I am overlooking? I see that I am running MATCH multiple times and not sure if that has anything to do with it

SELECT concat(a::text, ' / ', b::text, ' / ', c::text, ' / ', d::text, ' / ', e::text) AS concatenated_string
FROM cypher('hermech', $$ 
  MATCH (a:load_number)-[]-(b:origin) 
  MATCH (a)-[]-(c:pickup_time) 
  MATCH (a)-[]-(d:destination) 
  MATCH (a)-[]-(e:delivery_time) 
  MATCH (a)-[]-(d:destination) 
  MATCH (a)-[]-(e:delivery_time) 
  RETURN a.value, b.value, c.value, d.value, e.value
$$) AS (a agtype, b agtype, c agtype, d agtype, e agtype);

It seems to take about 4 seconds

You have a couple of duplicate match clauses, this would be more concise:

MATCH (a:load_number)-[]-(b:origin),
      (a)-[]-(c:pickup_time),
      (a)-[]-(d:destination),
      (a)-[]-(e:delivery_time)
RETURN a.value, b.value, c.value, d.value, e.value

Thanks. As far as performance (time until query completes) is there no improvement possible? If not maybe I can work on some cacheing solution where nodejs queries it in the bqckground so that its up to date

@MuhammadTahaNaveed do you think your PR (#2117) will improve the query performance in this specific case as well ?

If your edges are all directed the same, you could add directed arrows,

MATCH (a:load_number)-[]->(b:origin),
      (a)-[]->(c:pickup_time),
      (a)-[]->(d:destination),
      (a)-[]->(e:delivery_time)
RETURN a.value, b.value, c.value, d.value, e.value

Also, if you use different labels for each connection type and specify the name, that will also improve the performance

MATCH (a:load_number)-[:orgin_label]-(b:origin),
      (a)-[:pickup_label]-(c:pickup_time),
      (a)-[:destination_label]-(d:destination),
      (a)-[:delivery_label]-(e:delivery_time)
RETURN a.value, b.value, c.value, d.value, e.value

Excellent feedback!! Thank you!
