OrientDB GraphDatabase: OSQLSynchQuery for @RID to get graph.getVertex(rid) … the fastest way to load a vertex from index key?

Question

Given a basic Blueprints-compatible OrientGraph with Index 'name' (unique or notunique), any suggestions for how the following could be improved, if needs be?

Note: I can't find a definitive guide to load a [blueprints] vertex using index. I have a large graph and using has('name','bob') (in console) takes 2 minutes! On the other hand, an index-based search returns in milliseconds.

The best I've come up with so far:

OrientGraph graph = new OrientGraph("local:/graph1/databases/test", "admin", "admin");
List<ODocument> resultlist = graph.getRawGraph().query(new OSQLSynchQuery<ODocument>("SELECT FROM INDEX:name WHERE KEY = 'bob'"));
ODocument resultodoc = resultlist.get(0).field("rid");
String rid = resultodoc.getIdentity().toString();  // would return something like #6:1500000
Vertex v1 = graph.getVertex(rid);
System.out.println(v1.getProperty("name"));

OrientDB supports the IndexableGraph interface. To use it take a look at:
