P.S.

be aware that if the wavefunctions are not saved to disk they are stored in memory and if they are too many for the disk I kind of guess they will be too many for the memory as well.

Hello Ivo

if you use disk_io = 'low' and verbosity = 'high' the program should print the band structure in output and avoid the usage of scratch files, the return in io_base preventing the printout of collected wavefunctions.

If instead you want to use disk_io  = 'medium' you can try to replace io_levelat  line 57 ofPW/src/wfcinit.f90with a 0.

hope it helps

Thanks very much Pietro,

I have checked and
this indeed prevents wavefunctions writing in
the final stage, in prefix.save directory.

However, if one use disk_io='medium',
there are temporary files for wavefunction storage
in working directory,
prefix.wfcN
which at each step (k-point) grow bigger.

Is there any magic, like RETURN, to prevent
wavefuctions writing in these temporary files.

I would be very  grateful for this info.

Hi Ivo

quick and dirty: just put a RETURN statement in Modules/io_base.f90  at line 74 or there around and then recompile pw.x. Obviously once done remember to remove it ;)


for a more durable implementation one could add more modulation in disk_io strings ...

hope it helps

Hi to QE developers,

Is is possible to disable wavefunctions writing
in nscf calculations.
for Fermi-surface calc, afterwards.

(in QE-6.3 if it is version dependent)

disk_io='none' is not an option, since
it does suppress also writing of the energies.
