gatk requests enormous amounts of memory. How to limit it?

I'm trying to call variants but node crashes every time. It gas 512GB ram, 128 cores and i send qsub job requesting 16 cores and 64 GB for each genome. So in total around 7 genomes are computed at the same time there.

How to make sure node does not crash?

gatk

If you are using a job scheduler then nodes should not crash. I assume your job is getting killed because it is running out of resources? It may help to actually provide the exact tool you are using/command line you are using.

Can you plz post your code to call GATK?
