Yes! EMBOSS will read any sequence length, it is limited by the memory on
the machine.
By default, EMBOSS reads the input sequence into a buffer while gussing the
format. If you specify the format in the USA or on the command line it will
use less memory for a very large sequence.
For example:
% cpgreport fasta::big.seq
% cpgreport big.seq -sf fasta
