Dear Denny,
If you run the job with options -dls8
it will produce a .asl file which would show me how far it got.
i.e. Formed SSP, inverted SSP, formed working variables etc
You .asr file was not attached.

> I was wondering if anyone has got a good idea of how large a problem ASREML
might successfully complete. For example, I have a single trait genetic
(variance components) analysis, with n~280,000 and approximately 850,000 animals
in a-inverse.

> I am running on a Linux (RedHat 7.1) workstation with two Xeon 933 processors,
2GB RDRAM and about 4 GB swap space. Using the above data, the model specifies
2 random effects (direct and maternal genetic) in addition to the residual.
Repeated attempts to run this job result in an error message: Too BIG! use -s
option. The job was invoked using, for example, the command:

> Apparently, ASREML forms and writes ainverse.bin without a problem, so the
error occurs either while forming the equations or during iteration. The
appropriate .asr file is attached.
