Table 3. Average runtimes per phase of the RNA-seq pipeline.

Runtime and speedup per phase
Pipeline No. of nodes and cores Pass 1 map Rebuild genome Pass 2 map Variant calling steps
Classical pipeline 1 node × single core 1h 19min (n/a) 4min (n/a) 3h 29min (n/a) 23h 1min (n/a)
1 node × 20 cores 6min (14.24×) 2min (2.18×) 22min (9.69×) 12h 27min (1.85×)
Halvade-RNA 1 nodes × 20 cores 14min (5.69×) 4min (1.02×) 39min (5.29×) 2h 3min (11.21×)
2 nodes × 20 cores 8min (9.29×) 4min (1.01×) 22min (9.49×) 1h 26min (16.04×)
