I have a question regarding the specific command line for recon-all using the -openmp flag and regarding the organizing directory of longitudinal data. I am using FS version 5.3 CentOS 6 and in a linux work station with two processors with 4 cores (8 cores total).As far as I understand I can use the openmp 8 flag. But I just wanted to confirm the exact command line would be [recon -all -s -openmp 8] ?Also, do I need to include this flag for importing the files: [e.g. recon-all -i ... -s -openmp 8 ...] One last query, is there any command lines for organizing the subjects in terms of time point 1 and time point 2 for each subject?Thank you,Pablo > > Date: Tue, 26 Nov 2013 16:41:31 -0500 > > From: fis...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > > To: pablon...@hotmail.com > > CC: freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > > Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] recon -all in FS version 5.3 CentOS 6 > > > > Hi Pablo > > > > it also depends on how much ram it has.
