I don't think the graph can be exported without it first being displayed.
If calling -graph use- followed by -graph export- is slowing you down, you may get an improvement in speed if you save the graph with the -asis- option:
graph twoway whatever, options saving(gname.gph, asis replace)
The advantage of this is that the saved file is smaller and therefore should be quicker to load. The only caveat is that a graph saved with the -asis- option cannot be edited further.

Hi Statalisters
I am producing a large sequence of graphs within a loop, each of which I want to export as a standard image format like .tif ; for this application I am not interested in the .gph file.
Is there any way of getting the .tif files without having to display each graph in turn (which slows things down)? It seems that -graph export- needs the image to be displayed.
