[vtkusers] Graphs in VTK

[David E DeMarle]

I don't personally know how the large graphs were rendered so
efficiently. Hopefully Jeff Baumes and the Sandia developers will
chime in.

OverView morphed into what Sandia now calls the Titan project. Again
hopefully someone on that team will chime in about it.

I'm using the built in vtkRandomGraphSource with a vtkForceDirectedLayoutStrategy.  I've seen some great graph examples on the web and I'm wondering how they were able to render the graphs and rotate them efficiently.  Any ideas on how to render large graphs efficiently in vtk?
