Dear All, I am trying to optimize the lattice parameter of Fe2TiSb by running the following code self consistently. But somehow it is giving a lattice parameter of 6.82 Angstrom, which is nowhere near to the lattice parameter I am getting experimentally ( 6.017 Angstrom). My input file is the

Which version of the code are you referring to? in the 6.0 version, there is nothing to explain: you get an estimate of the dynamically allocated memory, which may or may not be accurate, but hopefully not dramatically off Paolo On Mon, Nov 7, 2016 at 5:36 PM, Aldo Ugolotti

The number of H\psi products, as well as the number of scf iterations, is not directly related to the size of the systems, but larger systems are often more difficult to converge than smaller ones, and there may be significant differences between "nasty" and "easy" systems. Paolo On Tue, Nov 8,

Thank you very much again, this help is very useful. In this point I wonder if the (*N*h := number of *H*[image: $ \psi$] products needed by iterative diagonalization) depends on the size of the system, or it is more or less constant for different kinds of systems. Best regards 2016-11-08 12:58

There is no similar page for the phonon code, but there is this remark: "*For phonon calculations, each of the 3Nat modes requires a time of the same order of magnitude of self-consistent calculation in the same system (possibly times a small multiple)." *More accurate estimates depend a lot upon
