Hi,
Recently the waiting time for both Galaxy org and Galaxy europe is long. I am wondering what is wrong with them, thanks.
Best regards,

Hi @huiping
Yes, there seem to be a lot of people working right now. That is pretty common for December – every year! No matter how much we scale the computational resources, and we do scale by a significant amount year over year, demand will always push against that limit.
My unscientific explanation is that a lot of people like to learn something new, or to catch up on projects, towards the end of the semester or when they are taking their break. This happens a bit in the spring too but the winter holidays are predictably our busiest time each year. Late July/early August are always the slowest (I guess summer holidays are actually taken as a break!).
The best advice we have is to get as much as you can queued, set a notification, then to allow it to run. Maybe use this time to build up some workflows if you are not using those yet since that is always the fastest way to queue work in large batches.
I know you already know this … but for anyone reading later on or new to Galaxy, please see this guide for an overview of how jobs process at the shared public clusters. → Troubleshooting resources for errors or unexpected results

Thank you, Jennifer.
I wonder how to do that according to your best advice: get as much as you can queued, set a notification, then to allow it to run.
Have a nice weekend.

This part. When you start up a workflow, all the jobs are queued at the same time. This can process even really large amounts of data very quickly.
We have some tutorials about this:
- Very simple to get started → Hands-on: Galaxy Basics for everyone / Galaxy Basics for everyone / Introduction to Galaxy Analyses
- Then you can learn more here → Using Galaxy and Managing your Data / Tutorial List. Maybe use it as a reference?
- And each tutorial has a workflow you can use as a template. Or, search for a published workflow you can adapt. See → GTN Pan-Galactic Workflow Search. You can import and adjust any of those, or maybe you’ll find one that does exactly what you want.
Hope this helps!

Hi, Jennifer,
Can I use Zip collection tool and merge collection tool to do it} Thanks.
Best regards,
Chen
Hi @huiping
I’m not sure I understand what you are asking about. If you have a new question about how to use a tool or manipulate a collection, would you please start up a new topic and explain the situation? The tools involved, what the collection looks like, how you want to transform it, maybe a shared history but screenshots can work too. Thanks!
