[Pw_forum] HSE functional problem

Thaks for the reply. I was also thinking it might be a memory issue so I
ran with 16 nodes but 8 cores each sothat more memory is available per core
but that did not help me . If this is a memory problem any idea to avert
this. I have attached my input file for the hse calculation.

Kind Regards,
Paresh
