Compared to the current C implementation, shotgun metagenomic reads are processed up to 22 times faster using a single thread, with better scaling for multithreaded execution. The Rust code of FragGeneScanRs is freely available from GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license with instructions for installation, usage and other documentation ( https://github.com/unipept/FragGeneScanRs ).
