Importing networks from Cytoscape public database is very very slowly!

Question

[BioLite]

Hi, companies,

I want to search some genes (less than 25) interactions. Because of its abundant database information, I choose to import these interactions by Cytoscape public database. However, it runs like a little tortoise, despaired.

Maybe someone would give me some useful suggestions? Thanks!!

Ah but the tortoise has it all worked out, though. Slowly and surely does it.

Which system are you running? Can you monitor resources during the process to see what looks unusual? Can you point us to how we can actually reproduce the process that you are doing?

What public database service are you using? I've been using STRING (through stringApp) a lot lately and it's been working fine for me.
