Hi FreeSurfer team,

I'm trying to create a base for 5 time points in freesurfer version 5.1 and have run into issues with my job submission exiting in error. This is the command I originally tried using:

runFreeSurferSinglePBS -N huey.sw -r "-all -base P040_2yr5tp -tp P040b_v0 -tp P040_v6 -tp P040_v12 -tp P040_v18 -tp P040c" -S /project/freesurfer/CNADC_FS/PPA_v5.1.0/ P040_2yr5tp

This resulted in the following error while starting global iteration: 2:

Resolution: 0 S( 256 256 256 ) T( 256 256 256 ) Iteration(f): 1 -- diff. to prev. transform: 0.127011 Iteration(f): 2terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc' what(): St9bad_alloc

Because this appears to be a memory issue, I tried running it with a new memory parameter, using the following flag per a colleague's recommendation:

runFreeSurferSinglePBS -m 4GB -N huey.sw -r "-all -base P040_2yr5tp -tp P040b_v0 -tp P040_v6 -tp P040_v12 -tp P040_v18 -tp P040c" -S /project/freesurfer/CNADC_FS/PPA_v5.1.0/ P040_2yr5tp

I've also opened each of the 5 time points for this subject and cannot see anything wrong with any of the individual time points.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
