Another thought occurred to me:  If you select a 32k version of the Conte69 
atlas as your spec file, then you'll get an error when you try to open the 164k 
vertex metric file.  I'm sure there is a way to downsample the metric file, and 
there are also mapping features in Workbench's wb_command, if you want to map 
directly to 32k mesh surfaces.  But we don't have a 32k version of Conte69 in 
caret5.
