/database folder after running “install_dependencies.pl” size 657 GB?

[Anonymous]

Dear Friends,

 

I nearly ran out of space after running “install_dependencies.pl”. Among the programs it installs, /database folder whcih includes “nr” sizes up to 657 GB. Can you please let me know if this is possible?

547M	databases/nr.38.phr

3.3M	databases/nr.49.pog

36K	databases/nr.50.ppd

I have 1TB /media folder and because of this size it is almost full. Thanks!

that seems about right. unfortunately the NR database is quite large but necessary.

for reference on my install:

41M     blast

46M     csblast

425G    databases

11K     install_dependencies.pl

33K     make_fragments.pl

48M     pdb_seqres.txt
