"GPU option"

Open Kirk3gaard opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When medaka cannot locate a GPU it will keep running on CPUs.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be great to have a "--GPU option" and have medaka fail to run rather than go on using CPUs if it cannot detect the GPU(s) as in #232 .

Hi @Kirk3gaard,

This is something that's been on the to do list for a long time but gets pushed down the priorities with medaka being focussed on research. We'd implement it as an option to use an explicit device (or automatically choose one).

This is perennially an issue for me; a --GPU flag would be much appreciated
