Warning when using HFX for a single molecule

[eft rsd]

Dear CP2K folk,

I have two questions about employing the &HF flag for a relatively large 
system.

My system consists of a single molecule made up by 70 atoms. I am using the 
large basis of TZV2PX-MOLOPT-GTH-qx and the PBE0 functional with vdW 
correction. This is how I wrote the functional flag

The questions are:
)
1- I tested the functional on a small system of 3 atoms and that was done 
within hours. However, for the large system of 70 atoms the calculations 
took ages (and were finally interrupted due to resource limits). The 
questions is: Is this a normal calculation period for HF? Are there CP2K 
options that I can use to speed up the calculations?

2- When I checked what was printed out in the log file I found the 
following message:

 *** 22:23:54 WARNING in hfx_types:hfx_create_neighbor_cells :: Periodic   
***
 *** Hartree Fock calculation requested without use of a truncated or      
***
 *** shortrange potential. This may lead to unphysical total energies. Use 
***
 *** a truncated  potential to avoid possible problems. hfx_types.F line   
***
 *** 1411                                                                  
***

Since this is a single molecule (in a very large box), can I safely ignore 
the warning?


Thanks,
ER
