TurboLynx: Schemaless Graph Engine Strikes Back for General-Purpose Analytics

Summary: TurboLynx rethinks schemaless PGMs as a first-class systems property, not just an API, integrating it across storage, optimization, and execution. Cost-based graphlets + columnar layout/graphlet-aware processing yield one engine for traversal and analytics, beating GDBMS/RDBMS baselines by large margins.
