Percentage of correct placements (shown as %) and the delta error (Inline graphic) on the RNASim data sets with various backbone size (Inline graphic). % and Inline graphic is over 1000 placements (except n = 200,000, which is over 200 placements). Running pplacer and EPA-ng was not possible (n.p) for trees with at least 10,000 leaves and failed in some cases (number of fails shown) for 5000 leaves.
