Hi all!
I'm switching from the base R *parallel* package to *BiocParallel* for my
Bioconductor submission and I have two questions. First, I wanted advice on
whether I've implemented load balancing correctly. Second, I've noticed
that the running time is about 15% longer with BiocParallel. Any ideas why?
Parallel code
cl <- makeCluster(ncores)
res <- clusterApplyLB(cl, my_list, FUN)
stopCluster(cl)
BiocParallel
parallel_param <- SnowParam(workers = ncores, type = "SOCK", tasks =
length(my_list))
res2 <- bplapply(my_list, FUN, BPPARAM = parallel_param)
Thank you!
Best regards,
Anna Plaksienko
