[Pw_forum] My wish about cp code: empty states

[Nicola Marzari]

Dear Jia Chen,

as Paolo mentioned, you could do cp, and then restart pwscf nscf.

You can also use ensemble-DFT in cp - that should work (we recently run 
some large metallic slab calculations) although it is probably not
optimized as the rest of cp.
