Datasets can be huge and sometimes it suffices to have a subsample of the file to screen against (for contamination screening).
Fastq_screen goes through the file and subsamples it to the given nr of reads (2.000.000 is a reasonable default).
i dont understand what you are talking about. My program has such sampling rate in fact, '-s'. 0.5 means exam 50% of the total. '1' means 100%
You're right! My bad, I should test it, closing...
