[Insight-developers] ITK 4.4 release candidate cycles about to begin

[Sean McBride]

Just wanted to ping this issue.

Now that we've removed the SSE options from Rogue7, 6 of the 7 remaining test failures are DeformableRegistration timeouts.  1.5 h of timeouts is quite a waste.  :)  Shall I suppress these tests or reduce my value of ITK_COMPUTER_MEMORY_SIZE or...?

Thanks,

Sean
