Great work and congrats to all authors! 🥳 Can't wait to read the preprint. Just for reference: a Fulgor index ⚡ on the same HPRC collection takes 8.26 GB (not in its most succinct representation). Fulgor, however, can be regarded as a "lossy" method here since it is based on kmers.
5/6 On the 466 haplotypes from the 2nd release of HPRC, the fastest Movi 2 index is under 50 GB. It can be reduced to 24 GB while remaining over 3x faster than SPUMONI. Movi 2 is smaller and faster than ropebwt3, although it computes PMLs, which are easier to get than the SMEMs found by ropebwt3.
