Data analysis execution time comparison between SPARTA and Rockhopper2. The two programs were compared for execution time when processing one, two, or three experimental conditions as compared to a reference condition. Both SPARTA (1.0) and Rockhopper2 (2.03) were installed and tested on an off-the-shelf iMac (2.7Â GHz i5, 8Â GB memory, OSX 10.11.2). Dependencies: Java (1.6.0_65), Python (2.7.9), and R (3.2.2). Data are the mean of three software executions and error bars represent the standard deviation. Data files (100,000 reads/file) utilized were the example data bundled with SPARTA
