genome / pindel

Pindel can detect breakpoints of large deletions, medium sized insertions, inversions, tandem duplications and other structural variants at single-based resolution from next-gen sequence data. It uses a pattern growth approach to identify the breakpoints of these variants from paired-end short reads.

Pindel does not use all assigned CPUs #72

Hello,

I am trying to run Pindel with multithreading option --number_of_threads 24. However, Pindel only seems to use on average 6 processors, even though 24 are available. How can this be resolved?

Thank you, Madeline

Part of the code in reading and sorting is not multi-threaded. Better cut the genome into pieces using -c Chris:start-end, then use 4 threads per region
