  Final cell parameters shows that 100Ry vc-relax calculations
  conserved symmetry (tetragonal) ! Actually it seems that you
  achieved your goal.

  Further Note :  Since you only test for two Ekincutoff one
  cannot further say Ecut=100Ry is enough or unnecessarily large
  for your system. To make sure for absence of insane oscilations in
  stress-tensor, you should do a test for a fair interval of Ecut
  values. However, since you wrote that total energy calculations
  is converged already for Ecut=50Ry, you can stick with 100Ry,
  if this is not expensive for your computing sources.
