That's more or less a bug in terms of log message. What actually happened is that, the MAF filtering function is also responsible for generating the intermediate files. As such, when generating the intermediate, we will state that we are calculating the MAF and filtering but no filtering was actually done
I see. Thank you for responding
In that case, it seems like PRSice takes a long time to generate intermediate files. I also notice it uses only 1 CPU (out of 16 in what I pasted above). Is there any way to make it faster and/or parallelize it?
Yes, unfortunately due to the amount of workload and my coding ability, PRSice can take rather long to generate the intermediates. You can make it faster by first converting the bgen files to bed formats using plink2.0, which has a much better performance than PRSice. However, this does remove the dosage uncertainty information.

Thank you!
It seems like PRSice would calculate allele frequencies even if --maf is not there. Is that intended? If it is not necessary, then is there a way to turn it off?
