+Cactus
+======
+
+This suite contains a wrapper for the
+`Cactus <github.com/comparativeGenomicsToolkit/cactus>`__ whole-genome
+aligner and another wrapper for exporting the data it generates.
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+The developers provide an official Docker container. However, the Docker
+container won’t run unless ``/etc/passwd`` is mounted (`see this
+issue <https://github.com/ComparativeGenomicsToolkit/cactus/issues/677>`__).
+Because of this, it is recommended to run Cactus using Singularity.
+
+Cactus uses a lot of RAM. We have tested it on Galaxy using 24 GB of RAM
+for a progressive alignment of three chromosome-level, 150 megabase
+genomes.
