[CP2K-user] [CP2K:17378] Single Processor vs Multiple processor

Hello All

I used the single processor to compute the energy for QM/MM system based on 
HFX method but, it was very slow. So, I moved to the multiple processor and 
realized that total energies of  SCF cycle are fluctuating too much, while 
the energies from single processor are very good. 
I am using the same input file and same Machine to run the jobs. Please 

Here is the output: JOB1 with single processor
