@manuelphilip Was there a reason for the old version of samtools =1.9? Otherwise I would update this to the latest version.
I found this, because we were seeing very large memory usage (> 20GB) for the rule get_mapped_canonical_transcripts, which should stream through the BAM (and the BAMs we had were below 1GB), so I wouldn't expect any large memory usage. The only explanation I have so far, is that maybe this very old version of samtools somehow had a bug or very suboptimal handling of BAM files.
