Converging cutoff with QMMM

Hi Matt,

Thank you for explaining. I made some checks and it seems that QM/MM 
electrostatic embedding does 
influence the convergence of SCF energy.

Actually I couldn't converge my SCF energy when it includes QM/MM 
electrostatic energy.
If I do calculations in gas phase for my QM subsytem (with hydrogen atoms 
capping) then I can 
converge the energy for GAPW (&QS &METHOD) with reasonable CUTOFF and 
REL_CUTOFF
(400 Ry and 60 Ry, respectively) but for GPW approach the convergence comes 
at much higher 
values.

Best wishes,
Dawid Grabarek
