            <div>Hi,<br>
            </div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            I am working on Quantum espresso -5.0 installed on linux
            ubuntu 12.04.<br>
          </div>
          However, on running the program for scf calculation, I am
          getting the following error on the terminal.<br>
          <br>
          "Operating system error: Cannot allocate memory<br>
          Allocation would exceed memory limit".<br>
          <br>
        </div>
        Please suggest me a possible way to troubleshoot.<br>
      </div>
    </blockquote>
    increase the number of processors ...<br>
    use conjugate-gradient instead of davidson...<br>
    use another machine with more RAM...<br>
    <br>
    beware that a convergence threshold of 1.d-5 is very lousy...<br>
