MAFA includes tools for categorization and statistical analysis of associations between sequences. We have evaluated the performance of MAFA with a set of data taken from Diploria-Strigosatranscriptome (using an 8-core computer, namely E7450 @ 2,40GHZ with 256GB RAM), processing rates of 2,7 seconds per sequence (using Uniprot database) and 50,0 seconds per sequence (using Non-redundant from NCBI database) were found together with particular RAM usage patterns that depend on the database being processed (1GB for Uniprot database and 9GB for Non-redundant database)..
