Seg fault with angsd/0.934 but not with angsd 0.931

[clairemerot]

Hello, we have tried updating the version of ANGSD on our servers and all jobs that were running perfectly fine with ANGSD 0.931 are know outputting a segmentation fault after a little while, and/or outputting a truncated file (for example stopping at the middle of chromosome 3...).
I was wondering whether any of you had the same issue and/or suggestion to solve it?
Is there a big improvement in the latest version or is it fine if we stick to version 0.931?
Thanks a lot!
Claire

I had the same error in 0.935 compared to 0.933. I noticed it happens after reading chromosome 2 (it's human data), no matter how many chromosomes I give as input before chr2. I am wondering if it has anything to do with chromosome 2 being the longest one. Have you noticed a similar pattern @clairemerot?

If users supplied a very high number of threads, then previous versions of the software might end up using quite alot of memory due to a racecondition. I assume this is what was causing the crash and given the lack of additional information I am closing this issue but feel free to reopen if needed.
