Altered the database (GenBank), but more than 7 days to build the database

Hi, I altered your codes to apply the GenBank instead of the RefSeq as the sequence source.

And I also added the scaffold of species.

So the database size (15G archaea, 686G bacteria, 350G fungi, 76G protozoa, and 2.1G virus) was ten times larger than the default (1.2G archaea, 119G bacteria, 1.7G fungi, 0.91G protozoa, and 0.45G virus).

And I used 180 threads to build the database, which cost more than seven days, but I still didn't finish.

I don't know whether something is wrong with my operation.
