I'd like to be able to distinguish between the nodes better.  For example
the image that I get looks like:

The tree nodes are just too close together to be able to read.  I think the
problem might be that some distances between the nodes are *much* smaller
than other edges.    The graph does not need to be directed, since the
distance metric does not imply a direction. The most important part is just
being able to see and differentiate between the nodes, and right now they
seem to be all lumped together.  How can I make it more readable?

Thanks,
~josh
