Extended Data Fig. 9: Time required for decompressing the Phylign 661k-HQ database.
From: Efficient and robust search of microbial genomes via phylogenetic compression
The wall clock and total CPU time required to decompress the Phylign 661k-HQ database, both from disk and in memory, were measured on an iMac desktop computer with 4 physical (8 logical) cores. The in-memory decompression process, which is implemented in Phylign, was completed under 30 min. This duration represents only a fraction of the typical time required for search experiments (see Supplementary Table 6).
