    Hi, While there is no option to estimate the necessary memory, there are a couple of advanced printing options to monitor the memory used step-by-step throughout the calculation. Please, refer to the MEMOPRT and MEMOPRT2 keywords in the User's Manual. Let me know if this helps,

    Hi, The input/output files you uploaded look fine. It is difficult for me to understand what happened.

    Hi, With CRYSTAL (from the PROPERTIES module actually) one can output the Hartree+EN potential in the all-electron case in 2D or 3D grids with POTM and POT3 keywords, respectively. In the latter case, the output is in .cube format. But I am afraid that currently there is no keyword to plot the XC part of the potential on a grid.

    Hi Chris, The reason you only see a few k-points printed is indeed that the printing options are not fully supported in parallel execution. In a parallel run, each MPI process handles a subset of the k-points, and only process 0 writes to the output file. As a result, you’ll only see the k-points assigned to process 0, which can be just a few, or even none, depending on how they are distributed. By default, the code distributes k-points in a round-robin fashion starting from the last process, so the gamma point is typically assigned to the last process and therefore never printed in a parallel execution. This behavior applies to both options 66 and 67. Try running the following input: NEWK 4 4 1 2 66 999 67 999 END However, you’ll need to run it on a single process for the eigenvectors to be printed correctly. If the calculation is too expensive to run on a single process, we may need to find an alternative approach to extract those values (though that won’t be straightforward).

    Thank you very much, that worked (but not restart)
