Run time performance for various assemblers presented in this paper
| CPU hours | Estimated wall hours (64 vCPU) | Peak RAM (GB) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Verkko | 8288.57 | 129.5 | 61 |
| Hifiasm | 366.9 | 5.7 | 150 |
| HapDup | 2425.0 | 24.0 | 624 |
| Shasta (UUL) | 582.4 | 9.1 | 1283 |
| Read alignment | 307.2 | 4.8 | 140 |
| GFAse (Hi-C) | 75.0 | 2.3 | 84 |
| GFAse (Pore-C) | 145.7 | 4.6 | 84 |
| GFAse (trio) | 0.58 | 0.58 | 30 |
Separate times shown for GFAse Hi-C and Pore-C as a result of its dependence on the number of contacts. For HapDup, CPU hours and wall hours show the sum of multiple steps in the HapDup pipeline, including an initial Shasta assembly, which used 96 cores. GFAse trio runs single-threaded.
