Your benchmarks are totally misleading

Wasted several days on arango (3.8), because it is twice as fast as neo4j, wow (it is not)...

1. Import time is not measured and it is terrible comparing to neo4j (100mln nodes, 300mln edges. 3 minutes for neo4j, 2.5 hours for arango (15min nodes, 2hours for edges)).
2. graph size is ridiculous, my small project is 100 times larger and neo4j often is used with billions of nodes/relations
3. shortestpath is quite useless search. neo4j's allshortestpaths is many times faster than arango's unweighted K_SHORTEST_PATHS
4. arango's weighted K_SHORTEST_PATHS and neo4j's Dijkstra Source-Target are both awfully slow, but neo4j might be faster, because it looks more mature.

general reliability and maturity.... neo4j is production ready, arango 3.6 had terrible bugs with shortestpath. It can be measured as "days since critical bugs". Arango doesn't shine here also...

So, tests look very synthetic

data import wont be done on a regular basis
