The workflow execution times of various configurations of participating sites are presented in boxplot form when the cyanobacteria phylogenetic profiling validation workflow is executed. Initially, only one site participates in the workflow and the execution time is the longest as seen on the left of the figure. As new sites are gradually added the execution times are decreased. The dashed magenta line represents the ideal reduction in time based on the increase in total computational resources
