multiplane_parallel in an HPC (Slum) #186

Open gmaggi opened 1 year ago

gmaggi commented 1 year ago

Hi,

I provide support to researchers in a neuroscience institute. One of our users is trying to run suite2p using the multiplane_parallel option. We understand that we have to pass the host, username and pw.

I have some questions about it:

1) does this multiplane_parallel option speed up the computation?, if so, does this profit then of the resources in the local-computer PLUS an external server?

2) how would it work in a system as Slurm? I mean, here we can give several cpu cores and number of tasks, if the purpose of multiplane_parallel is to provide more resources, that should also be achieved using Slurm I believe.

Thanks, Giuliano.
