You start with 49 landmarks and your hypothesis divides them into two modules of 18 and 49. There are a lot of ways of doing that (the combinatorial calculator on the web that comes up first on Google says that there are something like 1.155E13 possiblities: 11.55 trillion!). So if you choose to do the complete enumeration of all possible partition, your computer will be busy for a long time! OK, the restriction to contiguous partitions reduces the possible number of allowed partitions, but that comes with some extra computational effort. The message is: use a smaller number of partitions. For example, start with the default of 10,000 and see how long it takes. Then maybe try with 100,000 or a million (which will take about 10 or 100 times as long) -- almost surely, the distributions of RV coefficients will be very similar. I hope this is helpful.
