Hello Sebastien!

I have a question about the speed difference of running Ray on two Linux 
distributions: 
Redhat: Linux box1 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Nov 22 03:15:09 UTC 2013 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
CPU core#: 160
RAM:  1TB (yes, 1TB)

Debian: Linux box2 3.10-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.10.5-1 (2013-08-07) x86_64 
GNU/Linux
CPU core#: 24
RAM: 128GB

The reason of my enquiry is that my assembly on Redhat box is way much slower 
than in Debian. Of course I used exactly the same parameters of the assembly. 
Here is a table on total assembly time (seconds) with different kmers from our 
two boxes:
kmer    Debian      Redhat
11        115          460
15        115          464
21        126          529
31        117          497

I was thinking to use more CPU cores with more RAM would speed up the assembly, 
which did not work as I thought.
Sometime the difference was huge and the assembly in my Redhat was extremely 
slow. I was wondering what may cause this difference from the operating system 
part, so that I could ask the my sysadmin to adjust the configuration, or just 
avoid RedHat Linux for my assembly. 

Thank you!

Yifang
