You have turned the dipole correction on. This is typically very slow to
converge if starting from an atomic guess, if at all. Re-run without it to
generate a better guess, then turn it back on and read in the pre-converged
solution wfn file. Similar procedure to running a GGA as a guess for a
hybrid functional.
