In our paper http://genomebiology.com/2012/13/12/R122 , we used 128 machines each with 8 cores (Xeon X5560). Each machine had 24 GiB of RAM memory, so that was around 3 TiB of distributed memory. It took ~15 hours to assemble metagenome containing 1000 bacterial genomes (power law abundances) + human contaminations. Note that this 15 hours included also the taxonomic profiling and so on. Doing only an assembly will be shorter in time. Obviously, a test that you can you before going for the whole thing is: mpiexec -n 400 Ray -test-network-only -o NetworkTest-1 Then, check the measured latency in NetworkTest-1/NetworkTest.txt ---Sébastien ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
