Some steps in our bioinformatics pipeline rely on the Amazon EC2 instance type (even after dockerization), so this is an important step for reproducibility.
More detail on which CPU is used on the EC2 instance, and more detailed output of the CPU utilization (such as the outputs of
lscpu
and dmidecode
) would be useful.C

This is important because as we have found out, for some statistical libraries the exact model of CPU (and its builtin math accelerators and capabilities) can give different results. The results are reproducible but only on systems with the same CPU model. So knowing which model of CPU was used for a task is important for these situations.
