Applications: 1) Bowtie2 version 2.2.3; Intel® AVX2 port. Bowtie
2 is an ultrafast and memory-efficient tool for aligning
sequencing reads to long reference sequences. 2) NVBowtie
version 0.9.9.3. NVBowtie is a GPU-accelerated re-engineering of
Bowtie2, a widely used short-read aligner. While being
completely rewritten from scratch, NVBowtie reproduces many
(though not all) of the features of Bowtie2.

Description: Bowtie 2, in addition to aligning sequencing reads
to long reference sequences, is particularly good at aligning
reads of about 50 up to 100s or 1,000s of characters, and
particularly good at aligning to relatively long (e.g. mammalian)
genomes.

Results: Bowtie2 running on the Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2697
v3 with Intel® AVX2 port faster than NVBowtie running on the
Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2697 v2 and the NVIDIA Tesla K40*
for 6 of 7 workloads. NVIDIA published data of K40 compared to
Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 (6 cores) on one workload.
Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specific computer systems,
components, software, operations and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated
