maq map - Assertion 'matches' failed

[AnamikaDarwin]

Hello,

I am running maq 0.7.1. When I run the maq map command with the following options:
maq map -m 0.005 -n 2 -u s512a.poor.unmap -H s512a.multiple.mismatch My.bfa s51a.bfq s52a.bfq

I am getting the error - Assertion 'matches' failed, after which the command gets aborted. Any idea how this can be rectified?

Thanks,
Anamika

Sorry. That is insufficient memory. You should split your read files into smaller chunks (say 2 million reads per job). Maq's memory is largely determined by the number of reads in the bfq.
