Hello!
I’m trying to calculate graphene by pw dft on cluster. My purpose is to find out how large system can be calculated in it. There are 3 nodes with 4 12-cores processors, but meanwhile I’m working on single node. I’ve run 60 and 122-atoms graphene sheet, that took half and one minutes considerable in serial mode and faster in parallel. But I couldn’t get such result with 572 atoms. The calculation was run at 24 processes and has been lasted for second day already, but no result or error reports gives. In output file it continues writing the next message:
== Energy Calculation ==

… etc.
And more there are strange massages above, which weren’t in case of 122 and 60 atoms:

| It looks like your unit cell is too small.
