let me understand: your HPC says "exceeded memory", and you try to run it
on your PC?
In your output, there should be a line saying something like

     Estimated total dynamical RAM >      67.08 GB

By setting
   K_POINTS gamma
instead of
  K_POINTS automatic
  1 1 1 1 1 1
you can cut the RAM into half (results are the same), by the way. You
should also consider reducing the cell length along c (95 A!) and starting
with smaller cutoffs.
