Insufficient memory?

Can it be because of large cutoff and large kpoints?

Yes, reduce the cutoff. Try using something like:

ecutwfc = 30.0
ecutrho = 240.0

and

K_POINTS (gamma)


But you should make a test which cutoff is OK for the pseudopotentials you are using and how dense k-point grid you need.

But the iteration does not start and the calculation doesn't
proceed and gets stuck at the following point:

the calculation proceeds, if you have enough memory:

Estimated total dynamical RAM >      31.02 GB

but it takes time. With your k-point grid and cutoff, on 8
processors, something in the order of 10' before the first iteration
starts, 15' more for the first iteration.
