Hi Andrade

the computational complexity of the topology fixing is square in the 
number of vertices in the largest defect (actually in the convex hull of 
it). That means that subjects with small defects are process very rapidly, 
but large ones can take a long time. Typically if you have a very large 
defect it means that something went significantly wrong with the processing 
and you are better off stopping recon-all and finding out what and fixing 
it. Things like the skull being attached and such. Look at the 
?h.orig.nofix and ?h.inflated.nofix surfaces to find the defects. There is 
a tutorial on our website that covers this.

cheers
Bruce
