Hi, I have a question about how BAM and SAM files are handled by the genome browser? Does the software use samtools or similar APIs to work with these files?
Also I have a question on how SAM/BAM files are loaded into memory: i.e. If a user wishes to view a particular region of the genome, does the browser load the entire SAM/BAM file to memory and render a track of the specific region asked for?
