minibwa

Minibwa aligns short reads against a reference genome. It is the successor of bwa-mem with a different algorithm. Minibwa is over three times as fast as the original bwa-mem and twice as fast as bwa-mem2 at comparable accuracy. While minibwa works with accurate long reads, minimap2 is more robust under high error rate.
