[CP2K-user] [CP2K:18707] question about MD with CP2K

Dear CP2K users,
I am a new new user of CP2K and I am trying to run an MD simulation on an 
organic radical but I am facing a (possible) issue.
I have noticed that the calculation time for each step is on average 460 s, 
which to me seems to be too much (see table). I am running this calculation 
on a cluster using 2 nodes with 48 CPU cores.

Is there something in my input file which is not optmized? My input file is 
attached. 

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Best regards,
Lorenzo Niccoli
