[igraph] persisting graphs

[venura.2.mendis]

Hi,

Can anyone recommend the best way to store/persist an igraph object? Is
it writing a Graphml file or equivalent to the filesystem? Or is there a
better way. I was thinking of generating a graphml file and storing it
on a native xml database. This would let me run xqueries on the graphs
and load the ones that I want.
I'd appreciate any comments.

Thanks,
Venura
