This release resolves the following issues:

• Memory usage for uncompressed FASTQ files has been drastically reduced by replacing memory mapping with standard C IO. versions <= 0.2.3 use most of the available memory in the system, whereas this version only uses about 92 MB for short reads and under 400 MB for long reads
• Base groupping has been implemented for per base sequence content and per sequence N content modules, which also drastically reduced the output size of the HTML file and the text report, especially in long-read files. We opted to leave sequence length distribution without base groupping.
• Fixed a bug in adapter content where certian long-read datasets were outputting nonsensical values.
