I tried this to only include subclass and equivalent class using the generic 
reasoner, but the dataset still would not load. Again, even only using the 
transitive reasoner (which I’ve found tends to be the most performant but 
haven’t run actual numbers yet) over snomed wouldn’t load the dataset.

Yes, we plan on create a non-inferred fuseki service so that we can navigate 
(if we aren’t using the transitive reasoner, since it provides a direct 
subclass relationship) and an inferred one for all other queries.

We will when we start pulling in realtime data that we want the SNOMED 
inference rules to help us discover new knowledge with.
