If you start a thread with your processing parameters and dataset, I’ll try my best to get you sorted.

Thanks - I have a thread on the go already - see Processing stopped because of strange values in the reconstruction - WebODM - OpenDroneMap Community.
It looks like Gordon, jvhooser, and djinvite are having very similar problems.

Sorry. I’m a bit scattered since I’m working mobile and traveling.
This week I’m back to the ol’ desk. I’ll follow up with everyone then and hopefully try processing.

Can we get any clues before the series comes out? I haven’t been successful yet in processing even a 6450 image dataset, with default quality settings, and a Ryzen 7 5800x with 128GB of memory.

I use this as my starting point for RAM recommendations.
This assumes 1 or 2x the swap as the memory available. At 6000+ images and 128GB RAM, you’ll almost definitely run out of RAM. You could do 2500 images easily if you have 128 to 256GB swap.

Well, shoot. That certainly puts a crick in my plans to ultimately do tens of thousands of images at once! Thanks for the info though.

Yeah. It’s the right tool, but it does require some metal to get things done. Split merge can help though.

Ah, ok. So, changing the split default from 999999 to something closer to 2500 may increase the probability of success?

I’ve had a task with about 7800 images make it to completion, using 0.5X resizing, i7 10700K 3.8GHz processor, 96GB RAM, 1TB SSD. Every task I’ve tried with split-merge, 0.5X resizing, and up to ~9400 images has failed.

Yes, and if this is anyone’s experience, we can help troubleshoot a lot easier if you share the data publicly or privately. Otherwise it’s very difficult for us to help. 
I’ve processed up to 90,000 images with split merge. In the process, we discovered a hard limit of ~80,000 due to a zip library limitation. That limitation is now gone. We don’t know the new image processing number ceiling, but it’s pretty high.

Man. My build is pretty similar to yours. Win 10, 128gb, 5800x, 1tb ssd main, with jobs processed to an 8tb hdd. I’d think I could process jobs at least somewhere in your realm, but I’m just having issue after issue.
how many images are you successful? what are your settings and image specs?

sorry for post,
similar problem on mac
seems a recent update broke the installation of numpty
The answer to this problem has been revealed in another thread
solution is
to force reinstall of the correct version of numpy.
log into docker container then issue command
docker exec your container name (maybe webodm_node-odm_1) python3 -m pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall numpy
fixed my problem
