[rucksack-devel] Re: Fwd: State of the nation and heap patch

[Cyrus Harmon]

Yeah, the biggest performance problem I have is importing items from  
the NCBI taxonomy database which consists of organism name, id, etc...  
arranged into a tree of a million or so objects. I'll package up some  
sort of release of this and circulate the URL to the list. Right now  
it takes a few hours to import a million objects or so. It would be  
nice to get this down to a few minutes.

Thanks,

Cyrus
