The new version of pfsearchV3 crashes with big databases #30

I thought the problem had been solved, but when I donloaded the current version (as of Aug 24), compiled it on linux, and ran it against big databases (uniprot-sized), the process gets killed without producing output. This behavior is independent of the profile and does not occur with small databases.

An older version (from 2019) works fine. If I remember correctly, I had to increase CHAIN_SEGMENT_SIZE and MAX_NUMBER_OF_CHAIN in ReadSequence.c back then, but in the new version, this does not help (and MAX_NUMBER_OF_CHAIN does not exist anymore).

Any ideas?
