[Bioperl-l] SearchIO::blast, was Bio::SearchIO::hmmer hsp behaviour

[Chris Fields]

If we can work around the listener/handler that'll definitely speed  
things up.  I was thinking about tackling the SearchIO::blast parser  
next, refactoring it to use hashes as a separate plugin module; if I  
don't need the handler for that then it'll speed things up a bit.
