different default behavior. The parallel subspace diagonalization
is not always convenient wrt the serial one so it is no longer
assumed by default. You can explicitly select parallel subspace
diagonalization with command-line option "-ndiag N", with N a
square integer

Dear Paolo Giannozzi,

With this command-line option I am able to use the parallel subspace
diagonalization. Thank you very much.
