Hi, how big is the file separation.in and what is the software
environment? Each file is cached into a string. The maximum size is given
by the C++ library, but that limit is quite big (usually 4 GB).
I sure hope that you're generating that file with a loop and not manually.
If it helps, know that you can break the configuration in multiple chunks
and load them using "cv configfile" or give the definitions inside the NAMD
script itself:
for { set i 0 } { $i < MAX } { incr i } {
cv config "
colvar {
name d$i
...
}"
}
