[external_tools] sort: sort [general] # if set to max/2 (no quotes around) # half the available processors will # be used default_proc_number: max/2 # temporary dir: # deepTools bamCoverage, bamCompare and correctGCbias # write files to a temporary dir before merging them # and creating a final file. This can be speed up # by writting to /dev/shm but for this a large # physical memory of the server is required. If # this is the case in your system, uncomment # the following line. Otherwise, setting the # variable to 'default', deepTools will use the # temporary file configured in the system. # Any other path that wants to be used for temporary # files can by given as well (ie, /tmp) #tmp_dir: /dev/shm tmp_dir: default
