cd-hit-para1
Divide a big clustering job into pieces to run cd-hit or cd-hit-est jobs
Usage
cd-hit-para.pl options
Overview
-
This script divide a big clustering job into pieces and submit jobs to remote computers over a network to make it parallel. After all the jobs finished, the script merge the clustering results as if you just run a single cd-hit or cd-hit-est.
-
You can also use it to divide big jobs on a single computer if your computer does not have enough RAM (with
-Loption).
Requirements:
-
1 When run this script over a network, the directory where you
-
run the scripts and the input files must be available on all the remote hosts with identical path.
-
2 If you choose "ssh" to submit jobs, you have to have
-
passwordless ssh to any remote host, see ssh manual to know how to set up passwordless ssh.
-
3 I suggest to use queuing system instead of ssh,
-
I currently support PBS and SGE
-
4 cd-hit cd-hit-2d cd-hit-est cd-hit-est-2d
-
cd-hit-div cd-hit-div.pl must be in same directory where this script is in.

when you are not running it over a cluster, you can use this option to divide a big clustering jobs into small pieces, I suggest you just use "--L 1" unless you have enough RAM for each cpu
--S Number of segments to split input DB into, default 64
--Q number of jobs to submit to queue queuing system, default 0
