[Bioc-devel] Running Time of readBamGappedAlignmentPairs

Hello,

Could readBamGappedAlignmentPairs be optimised ? It's surprising that it takes an extra 29 minutes to calculate the pairing information, for the example below. The BAM file is 4 GB in size.

system.time(RNAreads <- readBamGappedAlignmentPairs(file))

user  system elapsed 
1852.16   59.00 1939.11

system.time(RNAreads <- readBamGappedAlignments(file))

user  system elapsed 
 192.80    8.12  214.97
