Dear siesta users!
I have a problem with my calculations using OrderN method, I hope you will
help me.
I tried to make relaxation of a big carbon structure with 530 atoms.
My problem is I can't run this calculation using big number of processors.
When I tried 16 nodes it worked fine, but 16 modes is not enough for such
calculations because the lack of memory.
Here is my output file.

Use PS.lmax or PS.KBprojectors blocks to override.

If anybody knows how I can fix this problem, it would be very kind of you
