Hi, step-by-step I converged MCSCF (cityp=aldet, 14 act. orb. and 14 electr) job. Now i want increase active space and try 16 act orb + 16 electrons. I ran check run i got

         AMES LABORATORY DETERMINANTAL FULL CI

THE NUMBER OF DETERMINANTS HAVING SPACE SYMMETRY A  
IN POINT GROUP C2   WITH SZ=  0.0 IS       82820900
THE DETERMINANT FULL CI REQUIRES  1822685203 WORDS
***** ERROR: MEMORY REQUEST EXCEEDS MAXIMUM.
 1822696229 WORDS REQUIRED    100000000 AVAILABLE.

Ok, i need setup 1823 MWORDS or 13909 Mb or ~15Gb. It is ok for me, because i am going to use 24 CPU and up to 24 Gb memory (1Gb per 1 CPU). I setup mwords to 1900 and got strange behaviour of Firefly:
