[CP2K:2853] problems using HSE as a hybrid functional.

Hi

you have most likely a memory problem. But in order to
be sure you should run a test calculation for a small
system (e.g. H2) with a small basis set.
Your input takes on my machine about 450 MB per core.

Another point is that the MOLOPT basis sets are not well
suited for HFX calculations. Because of their difuse
primitives you will have very large CPU times. You have
to use either the new ADMM method or another type of
basis.
Using the DZV-shortrange basis from BASIS_SET, the integral
calculation takes about 1 minute and the SCF iterations
about 2 seconds on my 8 core machine (ca. 250 MB memory/core).

best regards

Juerg
