UNIFI server becomes unresponsive while processing peptide map analysis - WKB228149

Article number: 228149

SYMPTOMS

  • UNIFI becomes unresponsive while processing peptide map analysis, does not proceed beyond 20-35%
  • The server RAM utilization reaches 100%
  • Other hardware overheads, such as CPU utilization or domain traffic (Ethernet utilization) are well below the maximum usage

ENVIRONMENT

  • UNIFI 1.9.4
  • waters_connect with UNIFI 1.9.13
  • Other versions or UNIFI and waters_connect are likely to be affected

CAUSE

The target match tolerance for peptide fragments is set very wide, making comparison of observed fragments to theoretical fragments very complicated due to the large number potential matches and the many false positives among them.

FIX or WORKAROUND

In the Target by Mass setting, lower the Fragment match tolerance and/or the Target match tolerance and reprocess the data.
