Use of multi-core computers
This section lists the tools that are making use of multi-core CPUs. This does not mean that they use all CPU cores available the whole time, but it means that they would benefit from running on computers with multiple CPU cores.
- Map Reads to Reference
- De Novo Assembly
- RNA-Seq Analysis
- Probabilistic Variant Detection
- Sequencing QC Report (will not scale well on more than four cores)
- BLAST (will not scale well on many cores)
- Large Gap Read Mapper (current in beta, part of the Transcript Discovery plug-in)
