This is a new one for me... interested? (during mcmc.autoTune())

51 Estimated completion time: 0 days, 15:17:52 52 ......... 1000 - 10:43:24 53 ......... 2000 - 07:18:46 54 ......... 3000 - 03:45:41 55 .........allocation error in pdmatrix 2.

That one is a malloc() failure, where the C-language stuff requests some memory and is denied. I have seen similar before when I have run out of memory (long ago ....). Could that be what has happened? If so, the fix is boot the other memory hogs off, or find a more commodious machine.

Hmm... it could be... but usually if it's killed by the queue for exceeding the memory limit, I get a "killed" response and no indication in the log... besides the queue indicated that it only maxed out at 3.4GB of an allocated 4GB. It could of course be the same problem, but that is not the usual response from the queue... I'll keep an eye on it... thanks.
