[CP2K:10729] Re: How to accelerate the calculation of pdos ?

Hi

I see in both of your outputs that you are running with 
1 MPI process and 36 OpenMP threads

 GLOBAL| Total number of message passing processes                             1
 GLOBAL| Number of threads for this process                                   36

 GLOBAL| Total number of message passing processes                             1
 GLOBAL| Number of threads for this process                                   36

With this setting you will get identical outputs. I don't see where your claim
for 12 threads for the second run is coming from.

regards

Hi Krack, thanks for your reply.
In the attachment, bilayerIso.out is the file output by 1 core and bilayerIsoPara.out is the file output by 12cores. 
I have no idea where the problem is.

Hi Tianshu Jiang

without providing the CP2K output files of your 1-core and 12-cores runs, it is quite unlikely that you will get any reasonable hint from someone in this forum.

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 !
