Yes.

As shows with guix graph?

This yields a small graph:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix graph --type=bag-emerged xapian | dot -Tpdf > dag.pdf
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This yields a big graph:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix graph --type=bag xapian | dot -Tpdf > dag.pdf
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I don't know how it compares to other packages.
