Table 2. A summary of the binning performance on real metagenomic assembly.

MetaBAT Canopy CONCOCT MaxBin GroopMb
Number of bins identified (>200 kb) 234 223 260 168 335
Number of genomes detected (Precision > 9 & Recall > .3) 130 96 64 39 28
Wall time (16 cores; 32 hyper-threads) 00:03:36 00:02:31a 82:19:53 06:49:39 12:19:12
Peak memory usage (for binning step) 3.0G 1.6Ga 7G 5.8G 6.3G

Notes.

a

Canopy only use abundance table as input, so it should have taken more time and memory to read and write sequence data like the others.

b

Manual steps were not used.
