[CP2K:10109] Re: cp2k hangs with large system

[Nico Holmberg]

Hi,

I don't have access to a working Intel binary at the moment but, as you 
said, there is nothing obvious wrong with the input file because it starts 
running without issues on my gnu binary. Has your Intel binary worked with 
other input files and does it pass the regression test suite that is 
distributed with the CP2K installation? Could you post the arch-file that 
was used to compile the binary including full versions of all the 
libraries/compilers?

To try and find where the program hangs, you could try activating the TRACE 
<https://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/CP2K_INPUT/GLOBAL.html#TRACE> keyword which 
prints out the list of subroutines the calculation accesses in sequential 
order. The output file will be quite large.


- Nico
