Dear Ke, Developers,

I have the same problem with increasing memory usage over time, with the 
following input used:

I run:

CP2K version 5.1
SVN source code revision svn:18091
cp2kflags: libint fftw3 libxc parallel mpi3 scalapack libderiv_max_am1=5 
libint_max_am=6

on the machine with:

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 16-Core Processor
G.skill DDR4 2x16GB 3200MHz RipJaws V CL15, F4-3200C15D-32GVK

When I used older cp2k version (2.5.1) I never had similar problems.

Best,
Branislav
