So with the help of a Bayofmany developer (the developer of peapod) we have some preliminary results from our benchmark package that now includes comparisons against tinkerpop3 and peapod. Good news, Ferma still vastly outperforms both of these frameworks. Ferma is approximatly 18x faster than peapod and 12x faster than tinkerpop3. Here is the output from the relevant benchmarks for comparison.
