hi linus, i did successfully try the example code, it worked without a hitch. internally to snet, the team working on importing flybase ran into the same problem you did, the result is too large for available machines and directly converting from the sql dump to metta is the current approach. i am working on an example in reply to your github issue comments, sorry for the delay.
