    If you haven’t heard of it already you may want to check out https://github.com/bwa-mem2/bwa-mem2 which is a faster version of bwa-mem. I’ve been using it for a while now and found it to be quite stable, same results as the original and the speed improvement is nice.

    I’ve recently switched to bwa mem2 and the speed increase is nice for what is basically a drop in replacement (after a bit of validation to make sure that was true). https://github.com/bwa-mem2/bwa-mem2

    There might be, the code is open source (https://github.com/BackofenLab/IntaRNA/) so just download it, and run it through a code profiler, see where most of the runtime is spend and optimise the code.
