From: FASTA/Q data compressors for MapReduce-Hadoop genomics: space and time savings made easy

Fig. 2

Experiment 2-Reading time savings. Type 1 datasets FASTA files. HDFS reading time speed-up when considering files of increasing size and different compressors. The speed-up has been evaluated as specified in the main text. The tick line denoted equal time performance of “compressed vs uncompressed ” execution. Values greater than 1 denote a speed-up, while values smaller than 1 denote a slow-down. The abscissa denotes file size and the speed-up of each compressor is denoted by a bar, with color as indicated in the top right of the figure
