Hello,
I received the following message
parallel: This should not happen. You have found a bug. Please contact <parallel@gnu.org> [..]
The version number:
20160822
The bugid:
Less than 1 byte free
The command line being run:
parallel --memfree 5G :::: example.txt
The files being read (put the files on a webserver if they are big)--
See attachement ("example.txt")
The issue is very specific to the use of the `memfree` flag. The command `parallel :::: example.txt` works fine.
For extra information: I have 24GB of RAM (Only 9GB currently used), 24 logical cores and run on MAC OS X 10.11.3.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Remi
