DFT calculation on spin-orbit couplings: Insufficient memory in ecp int2

Hello everybody!
I'm running my first computations with Nwchem.
As said in the post title, I'm intersted in calculating second-order spin-orbit couplings.

this is my input:

For the water molecule, everything worked fine: however, when I tried with heavier molecules (with halogens), I received the following error:

NWChem DFT Module
                                -----------------


 Caching 1-el integrals
Insufficient memory in ecp_int2 99

I think there should be an error in the memory space definition, beacuse it's not possible that a dft energy calculation (with simple basis set) dosn't run with 23000Mb.... :-)

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best,
