When I try to sort a very large file, I get an error message saying that the column I want to sort on does not exist. I can extract the beginning of that same file and sort it just fine. I suspect it is exceeding some memory or hard-coded limit somewhere with the large file size.
- /net/noble/vol1/home/noble/proj/crux/trunk/release/src/crux sort-by-column --column-type real unsorted-decoys.txt 'exact p-value'
INFO: Beginning sort-by-column.
FATAL: column exact p-value doesn't exist

The file is too large to attach, but it can be found at
