Well, there is one more possibility. If your graph does not have attributes,
you can simply convert it into an edgelist using get.edgelist in the R side,
and then you can re-construct the graph on the Python side from the edge
list. I don't know NetworkX well enough but I'm 100% sure that it has some
function for creating graphs from numeric edge lists. This way you can avoid
the overhead of saving the graphs to disk.
