[Pw_forum] Geometry optimization on QE530-GPU with memory allocation error?

Dear Filippo and QE-GPU users,

 

I am running a geometry optimization and the system contains 128 atoms. It
runs fine but until the time spent reaches 590,000 seconds it stops with the
error, and the job fails to complete L and I have this error 3 times for 3
different cases.

 

"Error in memory allocation, program will be terminated (2) !!! Bye."

 

I can confirm the error only appear after running for more than 560,000
seconds, so all the previous effort was wasted L if I cannot restart the
optimization L.

 

I have not seen such problem with QE520-GPU or may be my previous runs did
not last for so long.

 

Could you please check my input file? Thank you!
