Hi
I am doing electron-phonon calculation for picene monoclinic crystal (72
atoms). My calculation does not move forward after calculation of dynamical
matrices for first q_point (0.0 0.0 0.0). It gets stuck at calculation of
electron-phonon interaction.

Apparently after calculation of dynamical matrices it should not take very
long to calculate el-ph interaction but in my case it is not going even
after 5*time_for_dynamical_matrices for one q-point. In my output my
calculation does not move from this point.

Can you please elaborate some reason behind it? I am using 4x4x4 K-points
and 2x2x2 q_points.
