The "SA Bomb in sa_arc" message suggests that you do not have enough
memory to run the default high-resolution surface definition for PBSA,
please reset "arcres" to a larger number, the default is "arcres =
0.0625" (in A), try to use "arcres = 0.125" (in A) or even larger if the
message does not go away. A larger fillratio value wouldn't help here.
All the best,
Ray
