only game point could be not enough. As far as I understand, you have all norm conserving pseudo potentials, in this case using ecutrho > default = 4 * ecutwfc is useless and produces only a waste of computational time!

I did simulation for vc-relax but the simulation result is :-"convergence NOT achieved after *** iterations: stopping". I tried it by changing different parameters but same problem is coming. Here i am attaching the input file. Please check where I am wrong.
