Hello, I use dbxflat to index uniprot (sprot and trembl) flat files for which the size is 1.2 G for sprot and 11 G for trembl. The resulting files are amazingly huge: 11 G. Is it normal?
Another example with Genbank flat files: the division gbsts has a size of 3.3 G. Indexing with dbxflat give 6.8 G of index files but with dbiflat give only 199 M of index files. I know its not necessary to index genbank flat files with dbxflat because each individual file is not bigger than 300 M. I did this just for the demonstration. Apart of this, all is working very well. Thank you in advance.
