Refactoring Julia script with let or function block #2

Closed Microbiology closed 8 years ago

The new script looks awesome! I ran the new Julia script to compare to the perl script and pushed the results. I noticed two changes.

  1. The system time starts a little higher, but it does not really increase as more sequences are processed. This makes me think that it might be more efficient for very large files. This is something I would have to test out though.
  2. Even with these improvements, I am still seeing the Perl script running faster than Julia. Is this what you see when you run bash benchmark.sh on your system as well?

I think the next step is going to be testing out the BioJulia functions in this.

This is very interesting and I am excited to keep looking into it. It's both a great learning experience and could help my own research.

Thanks again for working on this with me! :)

I would also be curious to see how it runs on someone else system because the slower Julia could be a reflection of how I installed it, or my own OS environment, etc.
