it depends on the PP you are using, I guess, and certainly NOT on the  
actual structure you are studying. 80 Ry seems like an appropriate  
cutoff for moderately hard norm-conserving PP's, whereas 20 Ry sounds  
like appriate for many US PP's. In either case, you better check the  
aprporiateness by yourself, through thorough convergence tests.
