I am not an expert, but I can tell you what I had earlier done with
graphene. I increased the c vector gradually from 10 Angstrom to 20
Angstrom with a step of 2 Angstrom and run relaxation calculation. Then I
checked the final energy and the point where energy was finally converged.
I believe that should also work with the Ni super cell.
