Dear Kostya,

 I got your example file, thank you very much. Now I am trying to adopt that for our environment. It is not so simple, because our batch system automatically defines the nodes for the job.

Yes, that's good idea. I will try to implement this, if of course, PWscf team wants to do it by themself.

   Thanks again,
     Best wishes,
