Figure 1. Relative time spent on computational tasks for CCLE samples using a cluster-based configuration.

Figure 1

We logged the durations of individual processing tasks for all CCLE samples, averaged these values, and calculated the percentage of overall processing time for each task. Because the raw data were stored on Google Cloud Storage, copying the BAM and index files to the computing nodes took less than 3% of the total processing time. For preprocessing, the BAM files were sorted and converted to FASTQ format, which took 71.8% of the overall processing time. The kallisto alignment and quantification steps took only 25.2% of the overall processing time.
