The transaction mode store all the action to perform and will send only at commit GephiStreamerManager.call

t.commit() The advantage to use this mode is that it will pack all same actions into one gephi call, whereas the Driect Send Mode do one call per entity. It's should be faster for creating large set of entities in "one shot"
Example: I want to create 1 node that have a edge to 10 000 other nodes
- Direct Send Mode : will operate 20 001 calls (10 001 calls for nodes, 10 000 for edges)
- Transaction Mode : will operate 2 calls (1 for add 10 001 nodes, 1 for add 10 000 edges)
Default Gephi instance targeted is localhost on port 8080
t = GephiStreamerManager()To stream a remote Gephi instance use the argument iGephiUrl
t = GephiStreamerManager(iGephiUrl='ip_or_machine_name:myport')To stream to a different workspace, usr the argument iGephiWorkspace
t = GephiStreamerManager(iGephiWorkspace='workspace1')
