Is there any known limitation for bam merging? I am trying to merge 4 sorted bam files with samtools (v 1.2) but I get the following error: 39656 Segmentation fault (core dumped) samtools merge merging.bam *.sorted.realigned.nodup.sorted.bam *.sorted.realigned.nodup.sorted.bam are 4 files with sizes: 6.1G, 6.2G, 3.9G and 4.0G Any suggestion, please? Thanks in advance, Giuseppe
