Describing your problem in terms that only another biochemist will understand means that most of us here will only be able to guess at what your program needs to do.

  • What do co-ordinates for mulit-chain proteins look like?
  • What does an interaction between each of the residues look like and how do you calculate it?

The best way to speed up iteration is to avoid iterating. Lookups are fast.

If your dataset is too large to fit in memory forcing you to re-read files, then the first pass I would make is to avoid having to re-parse the files each time. A pre-processing step that parses your files into convenient data structures and then writes these to disk in packed or Storable binary format would probably speed up the loading considerably.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
