Last time we introduced the problem of single model, multiple property search queries taking a bit of time in Neo4j. We saw that using composite indexes or using “additional” labels can help us in some situations but not all. I promised you a stored procedure to build fake bitmap indexes could help, so today we’re going to see how to build one.
