Controlling the number of threads

[tstohn]

• MMSplice version: 2.0.0
• Python version: 3.6
• Operating System: Ubuntu

Is there any way to control the number of used threads in MMSplice?
Setting OMP_NUM_THREADS seems to control tensorflows thread number,
however MMSplice still uses all available cores.

All the best & Thanks,
Tim

Hi Tim,

thanks for using MMSplice. Have you tried this? keras-team/keras#4740 (comment)

BTW, I'm also looking into the writeVCF option.

Best,

Hi Jun,

Thanks a lot for the quick reply. I've tried it and it also created a bunch of threads (more than specified).
However, I just saw that actually only the specified number of threads are running - so that is fine with me and anyway tensorflow dependant.

Thanks a lot also for looking into the writeVCF option,
Cheers,
Tim
