I'm having an issue running palm following the CIFTI example (
https://fsl.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/fslwiki/PALM/Examples#
Example_10:_Using_CIFTI_files). I've worked with PALM a lot, but this is
the first time using CIFTI files. I am analyzing several functional tasks
from 219 participants in the HCP. I'm running a one-sample t-test with two
covariates. The subcortical statistics run fine, but I am having issues
with the cortical surfaces.

I was running 10000 permutations and after completing the permutations the
job would stall for 10+ hours. When I tried running less (e.g., 500)
permutations I get an error from palm_competitive about NaNs. The dpv
fwe-corrected stats save (and look reasonable), so the NaN appears during
the tfce stage. For the surface I'm using: HCP_S1200_GroupAvg_v1/S1200.R.
midthickness_MSMAll.32k_fs_LR.surf.gii along with the mean surface vertex
area of the 219 participants. Inspecting the data in wb_view I don't see
anything unusual, and no Inf/NaN are indicated in wb_command
-file-infomation.

Here are the options I am using (I've tried toggling accel, nouncorrected,
and logp in different combinations, but the results are always the same):
-i lang_story-math_data_L.func.gii
-d design_n219_mean.mat
-t design_n219_mean.con
-o lang_story-math_data_L_cort
-T
-tfce2D
-s L_midthickness.surf.gii L_area.func.gii
-logp
-n 10000
-ise

The relevant files for one example are available here: https://drive.google.
com/drive/folders/1uZPQK6Gy2MtTuOjZwin0ZToxBSUN9tct?usp=sharing

I've checked everything that I can think of to troubleshoot the issue, but
I've hit a wall, so I'd be grateful for any advise/insights. The last thing
I'm trying is using the sphere surface, and I'll update if that works.
