[CP2K:3926] problem when printing MO eigenvalues

Hello
these output options (matrices and MO coefficients) to human readable
files were only intended for small systems. It works by
collecting all the information on a single core and printing out
the data from this core. For systems of the size you are
looking at, this amounts to huge arrays and I can easily see
that you run into memory problems.
I don't know what data you really need, but the MO coefficients,
for example, can be found in the DFT restart file.
If you need more info, I suggest to write a specific module.

Subject: [CP2K:3926] problem when printing MO eigenvalues
Dear all,
Recently, we encountered a problem (probably caused by memory) when performing a non self-consistent calculation of a big system (more than 3,500 atoms). CP2K printed out the overlap matrix (AO*Log file, 67 GB) smoothly but always aborted when printing the MO eigenvectors & eigenvalues (MO*Log files).
By increasing the amount of memory per process up to 24 GB per process, a smaller system (2000atoms) worked out, but the 3500 atoms still fails even with up to 256 GB memory/process. Since we have performed the geometry optimization for this big system with quite some efforts, the more important thing for us is to calculate some physical property based MO eigenvalues.
So I wonder if any of you have met this kind of problem or do you have any suggestion about it. Any help will be highly appreciated! Thanks a lot in advance!
PS: I have tried it with both an old stable version and the most recent one from the trunck.
Best Wishes
Wei
