Table 5 Running time (in seconds) on the 1000-taxon rooted supertree datasets for BCD, FastRFS BCD , and for the computation of the strict consensus of the FastRFS BCD optimal trees (averaged over 10 replicates). The difference in running time to compute the strict consensus of the set of optimal trees compared to computing a single best tree is at most half a second
