no sir, that means something different. It means that instead of helping
the community by providing the needed information to reproduce the
problem, if any (type of machine, number of processors used, input data
and related output, pseudopotentials if not available in the  
database) and
to fix it, you choose a workaround that will considerably slow down your
calculations. Too bad for you.
