Figure 6. Running time of RareCover as a function of sample size, and number of SNPs.
As RareCover is a greedy approach, the running time increases linearly with an increase in number of SNPs, and individuals. The running time shown here does not include the time for disk input and output of the data, which incurs a fixed additional cost of
ms to each run. The total running time is about twice that of single marker tests.
