Appion

I was running the mean stdev substack program on a 128 box stack with 20,876 particles. Command:

stackFilter.py --old-stack-id=1 --description="remove extreme mean stdev" --minx=2200 --maxx=5300 --miny=340 --maxy=700 --commit --rundir=/emg/data/appion/artemia2/stacks/meanfilt1 --runname=meanfilt1 --projectid=1 --expid=3 --jobtype=makestack 

Most of the particles with kept:

 ... received 20876 stack particles in 5.69 sec
20263 included

Error message:

 ... created new stackdata in 8.05 msec

Not sure who I should assign this to, but any suggestions to fix?
