[Bioperl-l] load_seqdatabase.pl memory requirements unusually large

Thanks Mike. Apparently in your version of Perl you don't see the  
stack traces unless you run them individually. Based on the output  
below I think that Chris was on the right track when he suspected lack  
of transaction support.

To be sure, could you run

	./Build test --test-files t/01dbadaptor.t

The last test is for transaction support. If the above prints  
something like "your RDBMS does not have transactions enabled" and a  
failure of test #23, then that is the problem. In this case, which  
RDBMS are you using, and if it is MySQL, did you enable Innodb fully  
in the configuration file (you need to enable it *and* give the  
location of the data files)?

Once you fixed that, you'll need to empty your database.
