Ciao Dario,
all true, but at the end what counts for a expert in DFT but not in
computational implementations is "time-to-accurate-solution".
This latter requires time in itself to establish (i.e. what are the
parameters
that give me a converged result - say, for non symmetric configurations,
with forces that are converged to .XXX eV/A), but for a DFT
scientist that is a user of codes, rather than a developer of codes,
the question above (let's call it TASK "time-to-accurate-solution
knowing own CPU budget") is a very important one.
