Yes, there was no error, the only response was "6".

Yes, when working with MySQLdb, it does not auto-commit. You have to
do DB_HANDLE.commit().
There is no commit method in db:
>>> dir(db)
['__doc__', '__getitem__', '__init__', '__module__', '__repr__',
'adaptor', 'dbid', 'get_PrimarySeq_stream', 'get_Seq_by_acc',
'get_Seq_by_id', 'get_Seq_by_primary_id', 'get_Seq_by_ver',
'get_Seqs_by_acc', 'get_all_primary_ids', 'items', 'keys', 'load',
'lookup', 'name', 'values']

I am looking at the DatabaseLoader class (in loader.py) but I don't
see any commit statement, anyway, I don't understand this class, so I
may be missing something.
