<b>Subject:</b> [CP2K:11835] Wave-function update</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Community,<br>
<br>
I have a simple question. I need to do a geometry optimization large system at the DFt level. The size of the Kohn-sham wave function (WFN) file generated is 2GB, and it takes some time to write it on disk. In order to speed up the calculation, I chose to write
 the wave function without backup copies, with the option "&SCF &PRINT &RESTART BACKUP_COPIES=0". That worked flawlessly. But I noticed that still the code updates the *RESTART.wfn file every 20 SCF iterations. Since convergence is a bit tricky (it usually
 takes 100-200 SCF steps to converge), I would like to know if it is possible to write only the converged SCF wavefunction at each optimization step, i.e., is there a option that makes the code update the wavefunction only once every geometry optimization step?<br>
<br>
Thank you very much for your attention,<br>
All the best<br>
Fabio</p>
