Split In Chunks - failed

[rossnixon]

I'm using the Split In Chunks script, but am getting "bad allocation" after the last chunk is processed.
- The previous attempt (3x2) finished with just the final chunk having a Dense Cloud, and the other chunks have disappeared.
- I increased the number of chunks (3x5) but get a similar result. No Dense Cloud as the last chunk was in an empty zone.

LOG file:
2017-02-23 04:47:16 Merging chunks...
2017-02-23 04:47:16 Error: Empty surface '//If this refers to the final chunk, there were no cameras there.

2017-02-23 04:59:55 Error: bad allocation

Is "bad allocation" always a lack of memory?
Or could it be lack of disk space?
At what stage is the failure occurring - is it the 'Merge Back'?

The script has three options
- Build Dense Cloud
- Build Mesh
- Merge Back
    Should I try just the first two options to see if the Dense Clouds and Meshes are retained?
    Then is there a way to do only the Merge Back?

Can you provide your script for doing it please?

I used the standard supplied script with the Dense Cloud set to Medium Quality.
I'm trying again now with it set to Low Quality and with 2x3 chunks. I will be back at work in 12 hours to check the result.

Low Quality has worked. Got a complete Dense Cloud, Mesh, Merged chunk.
- Tie Points: 1,054,000
- Dense Cloud: 85,600,000 points, Low quality
- 3D Model 17,000,000 faces

I'm still uncertain if my 16GB of RAM was causing the 'Bad Allocation', or whether it was my C: drive filling up (8GB free). Does Photoscan use C: during the processing?
My %temp% is currently D: (135GB free) which I believe is sufficient.
