Increase trinity resources #16

Increased resources for the Trinity module as this step often times out. This addresses Issue #12.

Trinity documentation suggests that for 1 M pairs of Illumina reads, you would need 1GB of memory and 0.5-1hr of time. For estimation purposes, based on samples on NCBI's SRA, I would say 1 sample=~30M paired reads. To make an assembly from 6 samples, 180GB memory and 90-180 hrs would seem like a reasonable amount of resources to try out.
