Been running Freesurfer on Linux 2.0 GHz machines. I like the results but need to increase through-put for a 500 subject run. Got the money for a Mac Pro with 8 cores and 16 GB ram. Is it likely that I will get an eight times gain in through-put? Just need some kind of benchmark to determine a reasonable schedule for this job.
Thanks for any comments; Kevin Dabbs Dept. Neurology Univ. Wisconsin-Madison
You won't gain 8 times in one analysis. But you can run 8 analysis in roughly the same time you would do one.
