If it is running out of RAM, there is probably not much you can do except get more RAM, which is not possible. 32 GB is 32000 MB. You have 1000 Mtb genomes which are 4 MB as DNA alone, let alone all the overhead for storing the data structures used in the SKA analysis. An overhead factor of 10x is not unreasonable. So 1000 genomes x 4 MB x 10 overhead = 40 GB RAM.
Please help! I'm running out of memory on 32GB VM when trying to merge more than 1000 isolates of Mtb. It max out ram and whole VM frozen after reading file 389 everytime. Can anyone shed some light on it??
