There's a small percentage of subjects that need more than the 8Gb of memory (for mris_fix_topology if my memory is correct).
You could increase the memory allocation for all subjects, or you could run your entire dataset with 8Gb per subject, then re-run the ones that failed with increased memory. -Paul ________________________________ From: freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu <freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> on behalf of Horn, Mitchell Jacob <mjh...@mgh.harvard.edu> Sent: Tuesday, May 3, 2022 2:26 PM To: Freesurfer support list <freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] Scalable recon workflow Hi Paul, Thanks for your speedy response! In that case, I assume 1GB/core is the memory allocation? Is it helpful to increase that?
