Claim:
1. A method for improving the utilization of processing capability of a computing system analyzing genetic sequence data associated with a subject, the method comprising: receiving, by the computer system, the genetic sequence data associated with the subject, the genetic sequence data specifying a plurality of chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA; splitting the genetic sequence data into a plurality of subsets, each subset corresponding to either one chromosome of the plurality of chromosomes or the mitochondria DNA; defining an inter-subset of the genetic sequence data for read pairs with both mates mapped to different subsets of the plurality of subsets; and analyzing the obtained genetic sequence data by the computer system by dividing one or more processing steps in the analysis among a plurality of parallel processing paths, each parallel processing path corresponding to a subset of the plurality of subsets, each parallel processing path corresponding to either a chromosome of the plurality of chromosomes or the mitochondrial DNA.
