The ParClusterers Benchmark Suite (PCBS): A Fine-Grained Analysis of Scalable Graph Clustering
Summary: PCBS unifies scalable parallel algorithms and tooling for community detection, classification, and dense-subgraph mining, enabling fine-grained runtime/quality comparisons. Its methods are 4× faster than competing libraries; LambdaCC often achieves best quality. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
