Dear Elie,

Have you read a discussion tree about this message in the forum, or even simpler - User Guide?

> ecutwfc = 60.D0 
> C  12.00000  C.pz-rrkjus.UPF

You vast time with such kind unusually   high cutoff energy with US-type pseudopotential for  which is ecutwfc  typically is about 25-30Ry. Besides, you should add "ecutrho", 8-10 times of ecutwfc. For more information please see User Guide in your QE distribution directory.


>smearing='XYZ'

Is it really used in your  calculations?

Bests,
Eyvaz.
