Another thing you might want to think about is whether you really need the 
betweenness centrality of the nodes or it is enough to use _any_ sensible 
centrality measure. For instance, eigenvector centrality and PageRank can be 
calculated way faster than betweenness centrality or closeness centrality on 
large networks.
