Hi...
I'm trying to reproduce this. I've started with a clean
database and loaded the schema I sent to you last week. I've
then inserted multiple copies of BA000040.embl (renamed each time,
obviously) and tried fetching CDS for one of the sequences.
With two copies loaded, this takes 6.3 seconds. With three
copies it does increase slightly, but only to 6.9 seconds.
Loading a fourth copy at the moment, but so far I'm not really
seeing the problem you're reporting.
(It would, of course, be nice if things went faster than 6
seconds. On the other hand, I'm running this in a completely
untuned PostgreSQL installation on my laptop [256Mb memory,
slowish disk]. On a decent server with a RAID of modern disks,
the time would be negligable. And even just doing a bit of
basic postgres-tuning would help).
Thomas.
