Ummm ... I had gap4 running with projects of up to 4 million reads. It 
admittedly gets somewhat slow with these sizes, but a a fast processor and a 
healthy dose of RAM helps a lot.

I'd also be interested to see gap5, but I do not know how active James is in 
that development.

Then again ... I take everything back I just wrote as I quickly checked on 
SourceForge: James has just released a preview of gap5: 
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=938617

He writes it is very alpha, but still: Yipie.
