SEQUENCE_SEARCH will do a alignment between your given sequence and
every one of the proteins listed in SEARCH_CHAINS_LIST. Since you
haven't set this list in your top file, it will use the default set in
top.ini (i.e. CHAINS_3.0_40_XN.cod). Since there are a lot of protein
codes in there, the search will take a very long time. You probably want
to create a more targeted list of proteins to compare against. See
examples/all-steps/search.top for an example (this uses
'SET SEARCH_CHAINS_LIST' to give a shorter list of protein codes to the
search).
