Description of feature
Hello, first of all thank you for your effort in maintaining and improving the pipeline.
I noticed that
.tab
files produced by deeptools take up a lot of space even though they can be compressed to ~15% of the original size.This is the size of all files in the results folder grouped by extension :
After compressing the
.tab
files with the default options of gzip:The majority of tab files come from
results/star/merged_library/deeptools/plotprofile/
.Furthermore, when building a star index the genome used is copied uncompressed in
results/genome/
, which can be compressed to easily recover ~2GB of space.Thank you!
