An interesting database that might better suited (than SQL-based
RDBMS's) to complex graphs is MonetDB (http://monetdb.cwi.nl/),
which is particularly targeted to high-performance handling of
OLAP, data mining, etc.  It has a very interesting architecture
in which SQL is but one type of front-end, and not the one
typically used for OLAP (which is essentially what processing
RDF-based graphs comes down to).
