[Bioc-sig-seq] rtracklayer::import

[Ivan Gregoretti]

Hello Bioc team,

Would it be possible to improve the efficiency of import()?

1) perhaps reading data by chunks.

2) perhaps reading in only selected fields such as strand or score.

The latest improvement allowing direct import()ing into a GRanges
object is excellent. No suprisingly, I am back for more!

Thank you,

Ivan
