Sequencing costs have dropped much faster than Moore's law in
the past decade, and sensitive sequence searching has become
the main bottleneck in the analysis of large metagenomic datasets.
While previous search methods sacrificed sensitivity for speed
gains, MMseqs2 is as sensitive as BLAST, more sensitive than
PSI-BLAST, and two to three orders of magnitude faster.
