How to accelerate the calculation of pdos ?

[Tianshu Jiang in Beijing]

Hi everyone in cp2k community,

I am using cp2k to calculate the pdos of graphene, but the time spent to 
completing the calculation when I use 1 core and 12 cores is the same.
The version I compile is Linux-x86-64-gfortran, and I use cp2k.psmp to 
finish the job. 
But from the *.out file I get that in both situation (1 core and 12 cores), 
the job finished after half an hour from beginning.
My question is how can I accelerate the calculation using parallel 
computing ?

The following is my inputfile. Thanks for your reply !
