Situation: I have a graph with 500 nodes (say 1000 edges), with a root.

Goal: I want the user able to progress in the graph, by cliking on nodes, showing the edges and new nodes around.

Way I do for now: I first load all elements in memory (the entire json), then use ele.remove() for each nodes/edges. And just keep visible the root and around.

Question 1) Is there any solution to choose the element to display at startup.(and not removing them later)

Question 3) Removing the element does not free memory. Is there a solution to use memory for only elements that are not removed ?

Question 2) Are there a smarter/better approach to do the trick ?

Thanks a lot

Using classes with visibility-related properties, as mentioned, would work.

You can also animate elements and animate the viewport to highlight parts of the graph.
