  Description     : rapid alignment of large DNA and amino acid sequences

 MUMmer is an open source software package for the rapid alignment of
 very large DNA and amino acid sequences. MUMmer relies on a suffice tree
 data structure for efficient pattern matching.
 .
 Suffix trees are suited for large data sets because they can be
 constructed and searched in linear time and space. This allows mummer to
 find all 20 base pair maximal exact matches between two ~5 million base
 pair bacterial genomes in 20 seconds on a typicall desktop machine.
