Looking over this... what if there was a faster way to parse through the DNA sequences (ACTGTGTACCACATG)?

Just as Lemple Ziv and a few other "techniques" came around, would a faster parse methodology be something desired.

Has the question been relegated to the salesmans delimma, and other N(P) problems? all waiting shortcuts...
