long processing time solved by --no-temp-splicesite #377

Open nickarouse opened 2 years ago

nickarouse commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I had some extremely long processing times (>24 hours) that led me to explore ways to speed up processing.

I found that the command --no-temp-splicesite drastically decreases the processing time. What is the consequence of using --no-temp-splicesite? I am primarily running hisat2 on human samples for DEG and differential alternative splicing events.

Below is the command that I am running:

hisat2 -p 30 -x ${REF} -1 ${SAMPLE_NAME}_R1.fastq.gz -2 ${SAMPLE_NAME}_R2.fastq.gz \ -t \ -S ${SAMPLE_NAME}.temp.sam \ --no-temp-splicesite \ --downstream-transcriptome-assembly \ --rna-strandness RF \ 2> ${SAMPLE_NAME}.hisat2.log

Thank you
