Hi,

if you have a large model, then it may not fit into memory and hence
starting the decoder will just cause endless swapping. Look into the
instructions for filtering and binarizing the models.

With regard to the single '&' at the end of a command - it instructs the
command line to run the process in the background.

To see what commands run in the background type "jobs" <enter>.
