locus size run-time and memory profile? #73

Open agladstein opened 6 years ago

agladstein commented 6 years ago

Hi,

Is skeleSim able to run chromosome-size loci (e.g. 200 Mb) and compute statistics? If so, can you give an estimate of the expected run-time and memory usage?

Thanks!

Hi Ariella, apologies for the late reply. Assuming you have many (hundreds to thousands) of segregating sites on your chromosome-sized segment, skelesim will probably run very slow, and will likely hang. I'll let Eric and Allan weigh in on this though, as they have a better sense of what's possible.

That's okay, thanks for getting back to me. Good to know!
