[Pw_forum] << calculation stopped? >>

Hello,

I am new to QuantumEspresso.

After reading the documentation and some tutorials, I setup an input file
to optimize the atomic position of TiO2 using the HSE06
exchange-correlation functional.

After some time calculating, the calculation stopped. I look for the output
files, but anyone is updated since 01, July and the "ps aux" command shows
that the processors are heavily used.

There is a way to know what is happening?

Bellow is the input file used and the last output lines. I am running in
parallel using Intel MPI with 6 processors.

Regards,

I. Camps
