give a short description of what it is, what it does, and any limitations (e.g. what's the biggest dataset people should think of using, roughly how long will it take, etc).

One obvious limitation is that this model is only appropriate when neighbouring sites share the same model. So, you have to be careful if you are working with DNA sequence data that is coding data. Specifically, you might want to re-organise your dataset so that all of the codon positions from each gene are listed together.
