Hello, A while ago there was a mention of running BLATs in parallel on a supercomputer ( https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2010-June/022692.html ).
I'd like to ask, if possible, what is the method you're using to run BLAT in parallel ? Are you running multiple BLAT instances (on same node/multiple cores, or multiple nodes), or is it some gfServer/gfClient configuration ? Specifically, I'm wondering about memory usage: If I run multiple BLAT processes on a single machine (with same parameters), the 2bit database will get loaded multiple times and consume a lot of memory. Any hint or advice will be appreciated, thanks, -gordon _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
