Interpro 1.0 indexing

I picked up INTERPRO 1.0 from EBI, and their Icarus files.

Indexing takes forever. It also exceeds shell limits that no other
database seems to hit.

The database is not large by SRS standards (only 58 Mb), so I assume
it is the EBI's parser for XML that is slow and memory hungry.

In the absence of a list of SRS6 servers, or a DATABANKS database for
SRS6 - does anyone have a better interpro.is file out there?

Incidentally, on the EBI SRS5 server list:

    http://srs.ebi.ac.uk/srs5list.html

... the "new SRS World Wide" link is broken.

There is a temporary list of SRS6 servers at:

    http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Users/pmr/srs6servers.shtml

If you know of any more servers (or any more lists) please mail the
details to pmr at sanger.ac.uk
