Hi Jamie, Three time points should not be a memory problem. You can try to run this on linux. Or you can get a new binary for the mac from our development version with several improvements and fixes including a memory leak that might have caused this. Let me know (you may want to rerun all your bases with the new version then to avoid introducing a bias, it uses cubic interpolation and should produce better results). Best Martin

Hello,
I have a dataset of patients with 3 time points each. While 2-time point processing works just fine in the longitudinal stream, when I run a base with 3 time points, the process fails and exits with errors.
Please see the output below:

This is similar to a message on the mailing list from Liz Bowman (30 Jul 2012), in which the response was to get more memory. My command was done on a Mac with 16GB of RAM and ample disk space.
I'd appreciate any help!
Thanks, Jamie Kawadler
