Search times and for the benchmarks. The methods tested for each benchmark with their time to complete their search (blue bars) and the recall as a percentage of matches found (red dots). The search times (in seconds) are shown on the left y-axis, with their respective accuracies on the right y-axis. The search time for the MHC ligands benchmark is on a logarithmic scale due to the major differences between the methods. PEPMatch is many orders of magnitude faster for the exact matching benchmark (MHC ligands) and can achieve 100% recall in finding matches for all the benchmarks. It is only outperformed in the coronavirus epitope benchmark by NmerMatch when factoring for recall
