Sorting
The map/align system produces a BAM file sorted by reference sequence and position by default. Creating this BAM file typically eliminates the requirement to run samtools sort or any equivalent postprocessing command. The ‑‑enable-sort option can be used to enable or disable creation of the BAM file, as follows:
• | To enable, set to true. |
• | To disable, set to false. |
On the reference hardware system, running with sort enabled increases run time for a 30x full genome by about 6–7 minutes.
