This tells me that the program received a termination signal. This is
either done by using CTRL-C in an interactive terminal, or it's sent by the
queuing system if you blow past your wall clock time.

Try setting a lower time limit to see if it completes, and like Professor
Case suggested, set ntpr=1, and nstlim=10.
