Gzip compression in separate process #38

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I'm using the paired end patch I created and gziping the output.  This takes 
the runtime on an illumina run from 10 mins to  > 60 mins.

Would you be receptive to a patch that allows the creation of subprocesses to 
gzip the output, thereby using multi cores to speed up the throughtput?

Yes, sounds really good. I have als just committed a change that speeds up 
reading of gzipped files.

Feel free to re-open if you still think this is an issue. I don't think it is a 
problem in Python 2.7 anymore.
