In case your host is an insulator, alloying may turn it into a metal (depending in details). Then the convergence on a coarse k-mesh will be bad. As a work around, you can try to add temperature smearing (TEMP option in case.in2) with the value of 0.003 Ry. The obtained total energy should be taken

It is getting complicated when you do both MPI + k-point parallelization. In large calculations there is usually less k-points.

I did not work with surfaces of metals, but in the case of compound semiconductors you actually count the number of electrons per dangling bond.
