I'm delighted to finally post an official announcement of our
package for high-throughput sequencing (HTS), also called
Next-generation sequencing (NGS): `dhtslib`. It's not a very
clever name, and we are working on a new one. ;)

I am surprised to see the use of DMD (see the Dockerfile). If you
want runtime performance, the first thing I would do is switch to
LDC or GDC.
Perhaps DENTIST's particular use of D and dhtslib is mainly
forwarding calls to htslib (C) and thus D performance is not
relevant?
