This is true regarding the transactions and cypherl. All data is cypherl transactions because memgraph can handle a large volume of transactions. mgbench was designed to run in-house CI/CD, and mgBench is still tightly coupled with Memgraph. That is the reason we are still running everything in transactions. We did open an issue where we plan to improve things, adding CSV support for faster imports being one of them. https://github.com/memgraph/memgraph/issues/689 Agree on the more complex queries, and different vendors.
