For this issue it might have something to do with the fact that a supercell contains too much atoms and using the 2 variables 'noinv=.true.' and 'nosym=.true.'</div>

Now I'm able to afford more than 1072.11 GB RAM but unfortunately the problem still there, I also noticed that the estimated dynamical RAM changed in the output to that " Estimated total dynamical RAM > 7.43 GB " ,but as always, the calculation stops after
a while and the output file is stuck in this line : <br>

<br>
maybe, or maybe not. You may want to follow the advice on how to reduce <br>
memory usage, in the user guide. Selecting "disk_io='high'" might work, <br>
at the expenses of increased disk access, unfortunately<br>
