High cutoff running problem

Teo,
    Thanks for your reply about my questions. I tried to run cutoff
250 as you suggested. It works at the unit cell of 5.4 Astrong cubic
but fails at 9.4 Astrong cubic. The highest cutoff I can fun for 9.4
Astrong cubic is 200 cutoff. If it is higher than that the computer
showed "./cp2k: line 2: 13857 Segmentation fault" while it was
starting to run SCF WAVEFUNCTION OPTIMIZATION. I also tried to
complied cp2k and run it on a better computer with more memory (4GB)
and it still failed. You can see the input file and output result at
the end of this message. Could you tell me what is wrong ?

Chun-Min

P.S.  I remembered I used to have a problem while I was running FFTW
on another machine. If I used too many points in a cell, it failed and
showed "Segmentation fault". Could it be the reason?
