Microbial communities #43

Hi,

I'm attempting to generate synthetic LC-MS/MS data from complex communities of bacteria. I tried a community of 40 different bacterial species using Prosit (Oktoberfest) and Synthedia, but the RAM required was higher than 1000Gb and crushed every time I tried. I reduced it to 10 different species and still had the same problem. Only with one bacterial species, I manage to make it work. Is there any way to overcome this problem without using this RAM limitation? Can I divide the process by individual species and combine it later? Thanks! Rafa

Hi Rafa,

Could you please let me know the command line you're using to execute Synthedia? Are you trying to generate profile data, or centroid? Profile has a substantially higher memory requirement...

Thanks! Michael
