I am currently running the same model successfully on 16 threads across 1 node. The attached file (bkb1Ra1e8.o6876) contains the full error output. The error also generated a number of "core" files in the model directory. I last updated aspect through svn update two weeks ago, but this is perhaps an issue specific to deal.ii?</div><div><br></div><div><div>
