[QE-users] Are my PBE0 calculations running correctly?

Dear GIUSEPPE,

It's my first time to use PBE0.

I attached my input and output files.

It is a system error, not a code error. It might be an out of memory
error. Keep in mind that in the first scf iteration you calculate
usual GGA orbitals/ks_potentials and only here

you calculate for the first time EXX. Close to the beginning of the
output there is an estimate of memory usage, something like this:

      number of k points=     2  Gaussian smearing, width (Ry)=  0.0100
                        cart. coord. in units 2pi/alat
         k(    1) = (   0.0000000   0.0000000   0.0000000), wk =   1.0000000
         k(    2) = (  -0.5000000   0.0000000   0.0000000), wk =   1.0000000

      Dense  grid:  6118035 G-vectors     FFT dimensions: (  72, 512, 360)

      Estimated max dynamical RAM per process >       1.35 GB

      Estimated total dynamical RAM >      43.17 GB

Is it compatible with the resources available for your desktop pc? Can
you send your input/output files?
