Thanks. I don't see anything obviously problematic. The only way I know to "check" RMT values is to minimize the energy with a constant RKMAX*min(RMT) (Peter might know a better one). My observation is that is approximately when the last term on the right of the output, the step in the gradient, is roughly the same for different atom types. It should also be not too large.
Your value of 0.1 for Ti & O looks fine to me, both small enough and suggesting that your RKMAX is big enough. There is a reasonable amount of charge at the RMT for O ( ~1.3) which is to be expected, less for the Ti, again fine. The value for the gradient for Si of 0.576 is slightly surprising to me, I guess most of the Si valence density is outside the RMT except for the 2s (guessing). Without real proof I would be slightly cautious of how the Si is being treated. It is probably fine.
