We're having issues compiling HyPhy on both of our lab servers.  One is a 8-core Mac and the other a 16-core Ubuntu 9.10 system.  I am specifically writing about the Ubuntu system, but the issue is essentially the same in both.  We'd like to install the MPI version, but even the MP version does not install properly.  The MP version runs super slow (many times slower than my laptop) and slows down (non-HyPhy) active processes that were already running.

The MPI version simply fails to compile properly and the compilation then defaults to MP.  I would greatly appreciate any help in solving this issue!!

Thanks!
Dan.

Here's the terminal output from the last compilation attempt:

Hi Sergei,

Thank you so much for the prompt response! 

We're still getting a compilation error; something to do with a missing lpmich.  Also, even though we have Curl on that machine, the compilation script cannot find Curl.  However, I don't know how much of a problem the Curl thing is.

As far as the MP version, I have two simple questions:
1) How do I call HYPHYMP to specify that it run on a certain number of cores?
2) Is the MP or the MPI better?  That is, what would run faster on a multicore machine?

Thanks again for your help!

Hi Sergei,

Thanks again for the immediate response!

The compilation seems to have worked.  I'll test it out both the MP and MPI versions asap.  I've read that for the MPI is best to use a wrapper script.

I'm actually drafting another post about what method to use.  I'll be looking for positive selection on a transcriptome-wide level.  I'm planning to use you GenomeFitters batch files.  By the way, kudos and thanks for building such an awesome and flexible analysis package!

So, we have several thousand codon alignments or orthologous genes from 4 species, where 1 species has 2 varieties for a total of 5 terminal branches.  There is a relatively far outgroup (i.e. the closest draft genome) that we've added to an equivalent set of codon alignments, so in those alignments we have 6 terminals.

I'm trying to decide whether to run PARRIS (without partioning), because of the very small size and low sequence divergence in the data, or SLAC and FEL with a high nominal alpha level (say 0.25 or 0.3).  Maybe all of the above is best?

Given time limitations on this study (i.e. we need to get it done within the next month) I was not planning to use REL.  Currently we have ~14,000 alignments, although I may filter these down with more stringent 1-to-1 orthology assignments and dropping all alignments with less than 5 or 10 SNPs.

Thanks,
Dan.
