pymol seems to grab the number of cores on the system for rendering. How can I force it to only use one core?
I have a large collection time-series of of coordinate data from a computational protein folding experiment. I'd like batch render the generated pdb files into a movie in a programmatic way. Pymol however likes to eat up as many cores as it finds available. I'd like to retain some control of the computational burden (required for some computational cluster jobs). How can I force pymol to only use one (or n) core(s)?
While the question was closed (as it was decided to not fit into biological criteria of the site) future visitors might find it useful to know the answer:
set max_threads, 1
The solution was found in a Biostars question.
