how to improve CP2K scaling for small systems

[Matt W]

Hi,

Final question, again dumb l(ike the memory/swapping earlier - you've 
definitely not linked to threaded libraries? If your MKL or FFTW3 are 
threaded then it could saturate the box...

Other than that, apart from the GAPW suggestion which, maybe could bring 
the data transfer below saturation point on your system. I think you need 
more processors...
