you are dealing with a fairly big system, try increasing the memory. In
addition you could try decreasing the mesh dimension, however fine mesh (i.e.
larger dimension) will give good results. (Your mesh size is already small!!).
Also you could try controlling the Optical.NumberOfBands if possible.

Hi,
I'm working with Siesta on a cluster so far everything went fine, scf
calculations, relaxations, bandstructures... But now I try to calculate the
absorption of an organic salt (a solid with 236 atoms in a unit-cell). The scf
convergence is reached and the programm wants to start the optical
calculations. But it does not succeed. I receive the following error-message:
Optical: Polarization type = polycrystal
Optical: Minimum of energy range = 0.0000 Ry
Optical: Maximum of energy range = 10.0000 Ry
Optical: Gaussian broadening = 0.0000 Ry
Optical: Scissor operator = 0.0000 Ry
Optical: Number of bands = 480
Optical: Number of electrons = 870
Optical: BZ mesh dimensions = 4 8 8
forrtl: severe (174): SIGSEGV, segmentation fault occurred
