Solving for a large Number of Roots in EOM-CCSD calculation

Hello,

I am wondering if there are any special considerations to take when running an EOM-CCSD calculation with 25 roots to solve.

My system is relatively small, I have ~ 150 basis functions, and I am running the calculation on a single node with 64 cores and 128 GB of memory. However the calculation fails just before the EOM-CCSD right-hand side iterations begin.

 100a   (alpha) ---    83a   (alpha)        0.1118289896
   100a   (alpha) ---    91a   (alpha)       -0.1361817718
   101a   (alpha) ---    83a   (alpha)       -0.2961984723
   111a   (alpha) ---    69a   (alpha)       -0.1002392376

When I run the calculation requesting fewer roots be solved the calculation terminates normally. I tried changing the memory setting (change the ratio of stack and global), but that didnt help.

I am using NWChem version 6.3. Below is the input file
