• Posted Hash of Arrays Deathmatch : Native Perl vs. DBM::Deep vs. Redis to chrisarg
  Sometimes one has to make compromises between speed of execution and memory, other times one may not have to be. While working towards a fairly (at least in my mind) complete solution to map Nanopore Sequencing files, I ran against the need to create and access fairly large hash of arrays…

• Posted Of Go, C, Perl and fastq file conversion Vol IV : gone in 60 seconds (or less) to chrisarg

  In the final part of this series, we will test the performance of the four parsers, in a scenario emulating the batch analysis of sequencing data. We will use the sample fastq file 3_OHara_S2_rbcLa_2019_minq7.fastq from https://zenodo.org/record/3736457. This is a 35MB file of 21791 long…

• Posted Of Go, C, Perl and fastq file conversion Vol III : pledging allegiance to the flag to chrisarg
  In the previous entry, we presented a regex based fastq parser. As the regex engine maps to a finite state automaton, we should be able to rewrite the parser without…

  In the second part of this series about fast parsers for sequencing applications,  I will review the code for the regex based parser. This is shown below (I use v5.38, as…
