Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reading the linked contraction hierarchies overview and locating the library's existing shortest-path search implementation; done would require a defined contraction-hierarchies implementation and tests demonstrating shortest-path searches on large graphs.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

What is the expected enhancement?

In order to perform shortest path searches on massive graphs, it would be quite useful to have some implementation of contraction hierarchies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contraction_hierarchies

Is there any plan to implement this feature? Thank you!
