FASTA Splitter

FASTA Splitter is a perl script that divides a large FASTA file into a set of smaller equally sized files. It can be used to get parallelization from tools that are normally serial, but repeat the same operation on each sequence in a fasta file. It can also be used for threaded tools that repeat the same operation on each sequence in a fasta file, but do not do scale beyond 16 threads. FASTA Splitter was written by Kirill Kryukov in Saitou lab, NIG.
