a flag for `simgenotype` that disables the extra FORMAT fields #160

Closed aryarm closed 1 year ago

aryarm commented 1 year ago

we discussed this as a potential way to speed up VCF writing in simgenotype

it seems like a promising idea because the number of flags that we output scales linearly with the number of samples, so it's probably responsible for a good portion of the file IO when the number of samples is large

we think we can test this in parallel with #99
