What is the overhead (both in terms of time to sort and extra storage needed to keep track of shard boundaries) of actually preprocessing a graph (given to the system by an external application, saved in an arbitrary order) into this state? This seems to me a serial operation and the sorting might be expensive?

Sorting can be done by in memory merge sort or map/reduce so if the graph analysis will do lots of computation on the graph, the overhead is relative small.
