No need for the disclaimer, post a link to your benchmarking results. We don't compress as well as CRAM, but distributed reads across an Apache Spark cluster are much more efficient via Parquet http://adam.readthedocs.io&#x2

Hi! I'm a different front porch guitar playing guy in Mpls, near Lake Harriet. It's been getting too sunny out there lately though, because we're losing all of our boulevard ash trees.

Are the usage analytics available to package maintainers? What about in downstream taps such as Homebrew-Versions and Homebrew-Science? Would be nice to know when it comes to grant writing time.

Curious of your affiliation, if you're willing to provide it. I recently joined the Big Data Genomics team at UC Berkeley AMPLab, a GA4GH contributor. I was initially quite impressed with the GA4GH effort, because it was transparent a
