hello,why my marked repeat is very slow after the following command

RepeatMasker -pa 4 -species rice -dir ./ ../ragtag/ragtag_output/ragtag.scaffolds.fasta.original

and my result is like this ,is there any wrong with my parameter?my library is Dfam 3.3

do you have the rice repeat DB installed? if not it will indeed only look for the simple & low complexity repeats.

and yes, RepeatMasker is notoriously slow ... one way to speed it up is to run each scaffold/Contig seperately, that way you can 'parallelise' it a bit.
