Dear TaeHwan Moon,

I’m sorry for the typo(ion_positions->atomic_positions )

Did you check your output?

In the standard output, you can find “estimated …..RAM ….” lines.

and you can check real memory usage of your computer via linux command “free”

If physical memory of your computer is not enough, “Swap” will be increased

Sincerly,

Minho Lee
