<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Dear cp2k community,
<br>
<br>
I am performing AIMD simulations and I observed the behaviour that the time per diagonalization step and (for a different simulation setup) the time per OT step is increasing with the simulation time. I attached two plots to show this.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Is this an expected behaviour or could it be related to wrong simulation settings or the lack of storage space? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I also attached one example input file but this behaviour occured with several settings and input files (which where somewhat similar to the attached one).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><br>
With kind regards, <br>
