`R-INLA` crashing issue `inla.mkl: src/inla.c:23905: inla_parse_ffield`

[athowes]

• Happens with Model 7: the Kronecker product of AR1 and IID. Doesn't happen if IID and IID
• "with so many hyperparameters we have to increase the number of maximum function evaluations in the derivation of the posterior marginals for the hyperparameters ... control.inla=list(numint.maxfeval = 80000000))" from here -- though don't think this is the problem.
• inla.mkl is "Math Kernel Library"
• Have tried using PARDISO, num.threads = 1. Seems strange to be a memory problem as error happens right away
• I think I'm scaling the model OK

Have just tried this after updating the data and still getting crashes for the remaining countries, so there is an error here. Might want to still look at the data more closely to see if something can be fixed before passing into the model
