Single Cell Toolkit System Requirements
Because of the large size of single cell RNA-Seq data sets and the computationally-intensive tools used in single cell analysis, we have amended our system requirements and recommendations for installations of Partek Flow with the Single Cell toolkit.
Up to 100,000 cells per analysis
Linux: Ubuntu® 18.04, Redhat® 8, CentOS® 8, or newer
CPU: 64-bit 2 GHz quad-core processor
Linux: Ubuntu® 18.04, Redhat® 8, CentOS® 8, or newer
CPU: 64-bit 2 GHz quad-core processor
More than 100,000 cells per analysis
Linux: Ubuntu® 18.04, Redhat® 8, CentOS® 8, or newer
CPU: 64-bit 2 GHz quad-core processor
Linux: Ubuntu® 18.04, Redhat® 8, CentOS® 8, or newer
CPU: 64-bit 2 GHz quad-core processor
For fastest performance:
Newer generation CPU cores with avx2 or avx-512 are recommended.
Performance scales proportionality to the number of CPU cores available.
Hyper thread cores (threads) scales performance for most operations other than principal component analysis.
