[BioDarwin] BLASTN benchmarks

[David Adelson]

I have run some comparisons of BLASTN searches between Apple Xserves 
(clustered and not clustered) vs large shared memory machines (sorry, 
no intel comparisons).  See http://blastcompare.tamu.edu for details.  
Not surprisingly, the the Xserves were fastest at small word size.
