If anyone else with at least two of BioPerl, BioJava, BioRuby and
Biopython installed could try this example, and report their findings,
that would be interesting.
i.e. time importing the small NC_005213.1 and medium sized NC_000913.2
genbank files linked to at the start of this thread into an empty
BioSQL database.
