</div>There is no reason for this to happen - and indeed I spent quite a bit of time using various memory profiling tools to get the memory estimate accurate and check for any leaks (this is particularly critical when wannier90 is called in library mode).<br>

So I've no idea why you observe this behaviour on your machine. Perhaps you can tell us something about the machine/OS/compiler/libraries (the only thing that does come to mind is if you are using IBMs xlf90 compiler, instead of xlf95. The former is strict f90 and doesn't automatically deallocate arrays when they go out of scope)<br>
