Download a large number of gene sequences
I need to download a large number of nucleic (or even better, protein) sequences for two organisms (Arabidopsis thaliana and Vitis vinifera). By large number, I mean all the available genes on a specific platform (from GEO). I tried to use BioPython but it takes forever, when it works. Is there a better and/or easier alternative?

Please paste your "BioPython" code here and let people know the exact issue.
Are you sure it’s the code speed that’s the issue and no IO or web request rate limits that are slowing you down? (Python isn’t fast for sure, but seems less likely to be the culprit here to me)
