Hi for all Please, you would see theses tests in serial machine, but important to cluster. What do you think about it? Please look theses tests using BLASTP: Length Seq Query -- HITs -- TIME 10000 -- 3 -- 8min51sec 10000 -- 500 -- 7min41sec ---------------------------------- Length Seq Query -- HITs -- TIME 9000 -- 2 -- 7min11sec 9000 -- 500 -- 6min49sec ---------------------------------- Length Seq Query -- HITs -- TIME 3000 -- 3 -- 2min54sec 3000 -- 500 -- 2min52sec Theses times are very strange. You can see which the sequence of 10000 bases and 3 hits get more time than another sequence of 10000 bases but with 500 hits. So, I can conclude: BLASTP is not sensitive to similarity, difference of BLASTN. But the most important, why this happened? Can anybody explain theses results?
