Dear all, I am doing PDOS calculation for system ( 776 electrons ) using the 'projwfc.x'. After some time, the error message below was written in my output error file. ..... forrtl: severe (41): insufficient virtual memory Image PC Routine Line Source projwfc.x 0000000000BF9C3A Unknown Unknown Unknown projwfc.x 0000000000BF8E3A Unknown Unknown Unknown projwfc.x 0000000000BAD71A Unknown Unknown Unknown
I read through the responses to similar problem from the pwscf forum. Following the recommended steps (by Profs. Eyvaz and Giannozzi), I reduced the 'ecutwfc' and 'ecutrho' from 35Ry & 450 to 30Ry and 350, respectively. The 'nbnd' was also reduced from 700 to 500. I set 'diagonalization = david', to save the CPU time. Also "startingwfc"= ''atomic' (default). Despite all these steps, the error persists, and I am just not sure of what to do again. I need help please!. I am using ver.4.0 of QE, and the calculation is being done using the CINECA parallel computers.
