Is CPU acceleration failed?

[yanchenmochen]

Last day, I make some experiments in a Server to run the
./run_alphafold.sh -d /dataset/ -o result -p monomer -m model_2 -i input/T1061.fasta
and I read the log, confused, the T1061 is 949AA.

feature extraction spend time: 5305.185729026794
feature extraction Completed succesfully

I print the feature extraction time, find that , the 5305 is almost equals to the sum of each db search time, but according to the article, I think the feature extraction spend time should be almost equal to HHblits search, so can you explain the confusing problem?

[Zuricho]

5305 should be the sum of all MSA search time (actually include the PDB search, but that's fast), in the article, we state that the HHblits is the most time-consuming step, not meaning that the time for featuraization step should be equal to ones for HHblits.

If you mean the CPU accerlation, acutally we have not yet add that to this repo, I will upload that soon

oops, I means the step described from Sequential Tasks to Parallel Tasks on ParaFold. Threee independent sequential MSA searchs in parallel, in this way, we can reduce the duration consumed to complete MSA search。 @Zuricho
