large water system calculation with cp2k

[Phil G.]

Dear Samuel,

thank you for your suggestions. I will try first without curvy_steps 
section and see what the result is. After that I start with curvy_steps 
(after deleting TRS4).

Unfortunately our super computer system does not still support OpenMPI 
fully, but there are some newly updated versions of MPI for faster parallel 
computations.
So I have to write the code with "srun" and set the number of nodes and 
tasks-per-node as high as possible. Let's see how fast and effective it 
works. After finishing a part of the simulation I will give an overview of 
performance results here.

Kind regards,

Phil
