Figure 2.

Transfer times of full and partial FASTQ files from nisc2. FASTQ files were transferred between Clemson and Chicago over the public Internet using FDT. The time to transfer a complete dataset is shown with the bars labeled “complete transfer.” The time to transfer a partial dataset satisfying the criteria in the transfer of partial datasets section is shown with the bars labeled “partial transfer.” Reported times within a group are the average of 5 trials. Error bars are too small to be visible. The x-axis gives the last 2 digits of the dataset name, where each dataset name begins with the string SRR10748. The rightmost pair of bars plots the sum total of the times for all datasets within both groups.
