Ciao Giulia
I've run a lot of QM/MM calculations on enzimes using QM/MM on SP6,
and it usually works fine.
However I don't use the cp2k version available with the module
command, but I use a version recompiled by myself.
Your system is really very big, but the QM region seems quite small
then, i think, you should run also with 64 procs.

Did you put this line in your submission script?
# @ resources   = ConsumableMemory(1400Mb)
