All right, it could be that Irene Rome is doing wrong…

Yes. I also have been struggling a lot to make QE 6.x and 7.x work on Irene 
Rome, but it seems now to run without erratic/random crashes as I compiled it 
with intelMPI. One thing I did is changing -O3 optimization to -O2 one in the 
make.inc file. Anyhow, openMPI is definitely not working with QE on Irene, I 
don’t know the reason. 

Yet, if you tell me that the job runs fine on your PC, then perhaps Irene Rome 
is still doing weird things…

I see, so I shall move to other machines, then.

Thank you for your help and time,
