Figures: on the left, output file size comparison between different formats. On the right, total query time, including serialization.
All experiments were run on 100K Salmonella Enterica genomes, performing 1M queries. (3/6)
[Queries] We further improved queries by reducing redundant tasks and adding new output formats.
Besides ASCII, pseudoalignment results can now be written in binary and in a compressed format, leading to smaller output files and faster serialization. (2/6)
What's next?
* External memory construction and memory-mapped queries, enabling Fulgor to work on datasets of any size.
* Distribution of ready-to-use Fulgor indices for large datasets.

With @jermp.bsky.social & @robp.bsky.social, we have just released Fulgor v4.1.0 (also on bioconda! bioconda.github.io/recipes/fulg...).
Here's what's new, and what's to come. 🧵 (1/6)
