[CP2K-user] Problem when calculate slab model, the memory usage is increased and finally it stops

Dear Developers,

I have ask the questions of increasing memory usage for several times. Now 
I can calculate bulk system without stoping. 

But now I found the *memory usage for cp2k is increased with time (*for both 
of version 5.1 and 6.1*)*during running when I calculate the *slab-model 
system (water in 2D channel )* . Finally,  it stops when the usage reach 
the upper bound. I also tried cp2k 5.1 and had same problem. *But I run it 
in our old cluster which is 2.5.1 version, it works well.*

However, I run one of the example in CP2K package, H2O-64.inp (path: 
./test/QS/benchmark), which is bulk water system, using both 6.1 and 5.1, 
it runs well.

Can you help me?
Is the problem from compile (may be some libs) or the input file?

Best,
Ke
