Hello,

I am running qe-6.7 and running frequently into the error 'too many r-vectors' 
during calculation=relax. I am able to bypass this error by turning off the 
DFT-D2 vdw correction. Unfortunately, I do need dispersion correction for my 
system (a molecular crystal) so cannot afford to eliminate this correction.

    Error in routine rgen (18496):
     too many r-vectors

Is there another way around this error?

I have verified that the structure is fine - the unit cell and interatomic 
distances are all very reasonable. I noticed Prof Giannozzi once suggested
> increase the value of mxr in PW/src/ewald.f90, PW/src/force_ew.f90,
> PW/src/stres_ewa.f90, recompile

However before modifying the code (default mxr = 50 ) wanted to verify to what 
extent such modifications are 'safe', or if there is a better way to solve this 
problem.
