How can I make the process faster ( more threads)

[CAIO RAPOSO]

The program runs almost perfect my only problem is the slow time to get it done. A couple of days back I notice that iPHOP was running with only 1 thread, so How can I allocate more threads?

I already try to see the Help but it wasn’t helped me at all.

Hi,

You should be able to use the parameter “-t”, e.g.

$ iphop predict --fa_file test_input_phages.fna --db_dir iphop_db/Test_db_rw/ --out_dir iphop_test_results/test_input_phages_iphop -t 12

for 12 threads.

Did you try this already, and it did not speed things up ?
