    cufflinks-2.0.x take much longer than cufflinks-1.0.3 for assembly??

    I was just checking the new cufflinks versions (2.0.0 and now 2.0.1) with a test dataset. The recent versions appear to take way too long to build the gtf files compared to the old version. Anyone know why?

    ./newcuff_ABMN_R1:
    total 99528
    4437383 Jun 27 14:03 genes.fpkm_tracking
    5843960 Jun 27 14:03 isoforms.fpkm_tracking
    0 Jun 27 09:04 skipped.gtf
    91618081 Jun 27 14:03 transcripts.gtf

    ./oldcuff_ABMN_R1:
    total 99644
    4436635 Jun 26 17:20 genes.fpkm_tracking
    5858163 Jun 26 17:20 isoforms.fpkm_tracking
    0 Jun 26 16:36 skipped.gtf
    91724175 Jun 26 17:20 transcripts.gtf

    Look at the timestamps (diff between the timestamps of skipped.gtf and transcripts.gtf). the old version took about 45 mins where as the new version took 5 hours!! - both using the same accepted_hits.bam file and identical parameters.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
