Hi Mel
most of the time is usally in mri_ca_register, which does get a big benefit
from GPU acceleration. mris_inflate should only take a couple of min, so I
wouldn't worry about it.
Not many recons take 42 hours any more though! That probably means you had
a lot of largish defects. Are you using the 7T acquisition protocol that
Jon has recommended?
cheers
Bruce

Dear list, especially Bruce and Jon,
We are starting to acquire images on the local 7T Philips scanner and would
like to run them through
FS. We did some pilot runs following what’s described on
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/SubmillimeterRecon and in
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S105381191730808X. That took
approximately 42
hours. It looked reasonable but I estimate from the pilot run that some manual
edits will be in
order. This is quite tedious to do if the turnaround time is 2 days and we are
looking at quite a
few number of patients we want to run.
Would we actually get any speedup if we utilize the -use-gpu flag (we don’t
have access to a gpu
yet, but are getting one soon). I looked at the speedup factors and especially
mris-inflate doesn’t
speed up too much

Kind regards,
