How to specify fractional time duration?

[gdevenyi]

In the code definition of duration a period (.) is used to separate the numeric from the units, however, this causes a problem when I want to specify a fractional unit (1.5.hr). I get an error when doing so in the config/profile settings.

How do we specify fractional durations with units attached?

You can combine different time units: https://nextflow.io/docs/latest/process.html#time

That example is from "string" formats, but in profile/process config it looks like I need the numeric representation.

I can't find an example for that

You can use the string representation in config files too
