Hi everyone,
I got bored waiting around for the fasta tools to finish so I improved
the length filter and fasta to tabular scripts. On a reasonable data
set these were taking over ten minutes with the old version. With
this version its a few seconds.
The improvement comes from not reformatting the data, caching it in
memory or building a hash. All of these are unnecessary for these
tasks IMO.
cheers,
James
