[QE-users] Fwd: projwfc.x out of memory

[Aldo Ugolotti]

Dear QE Users,

I am recently encountering an error running projwfc.x. The nscf
calculation to increase the k points mesh runs smoothly, however few
minutes after starting the projwfc.x task, the process is killed by the
system with an "out of memory" message. This happens on a large cluster
with 180 Gb di memory per node. This is not resolved if I reduce the
energy window into which the dos is calculated.

Is there a way to resolve the issue?

Regards,
