[QE-users] Why I can't compute the optical properties of my supercell?

[NAIMI SALMA]

Dear Paolo,

Now I'm able to afford more than 1072.11 GB RAM but unfortunately the problem still there, I also noticed that the estimated dynamical RAM changed in the output to that " Estimated  total dynamical RAM >  7.43 GB " ,but as always, the calculation stops after a while and the output file is stuck in this line :

'N of occupied +U levels =  260.000000
 --- exit write_ns ---
 Atomic wfc used for LDA+U Projector are orthogonalized
     Starting wfcs are  503 randomized atomic wfcs +   99 random wfcs'

Kind regards,

maybe, or maybe not. You may want to follow the advice on how to reduce
memory usage, in the user guide. Selecting "disk_io='high'" might work,
at the expenses of increased disk access, unfortunately
