[Genome] More efficient access to rat blat search

[Caroline Hacker]

Dear Sir/Madam

 

We have just received the following message in response to rat blat
searching and acknowledge that we have a very large data set to work
through.  Please could you advise how we should best proceed.  We have a
total of ~9000 sequences to search using the rat genome (Nov 2004
assembly).  I also wonder whether there is a more recent assembly of the
rat genome?

 

Many thanks in advance for your help.

"There is a very high volume of traffic coming from your site (IP
address 62.232.24.178) as of Thu May 10 03:30:10 2007 (California time).
So that other users get a fair share of our bandwidth, we are putting in
a delay of 19.3 seconds before we service your request. This delay will
slowly decrease over a half hour as activity returns to normal. This
high volume of traffic is likely due to program-driven rather than
interactive access, or the submission of queries on a large number of
sequences. If you are making large batch queries, please write to our
genome at cse.ucsc.edu public mailing list and inquire about more efficient
ways to access our data. If you are sharing an IP address with someone
who is sumitting large batch queries, we apologize for the
inconvenience. Please contact genome-www at cse.ucsc.edu if you think this
delay is being imposed unfairly."
