Bowtie2 performance suffers when using many threads in some conditions #21

Closed bede closed 1 year ago

bede commented 1 year ago

For some datasets, Bowtie2's CPU utilisation decreases with increasing numbers of threads. Workaround is not to use more than 8-16 threads. Raised upstream https://github.com/BenLangmead/bowtie2/issues/437
