I find the progress indications in the l_ file of yambo tremendously helpful - it really makes planning wall times very easy.
I only have one small suggestion for improvement: Please print the progress of the chi-calculation (denoted as X@q in the l_ file) more often.
For large systems, the calculation of chi can dominate the overall runtime, but at the moment I only get notified at 50% and 100%
Below is an excerpt of a sample l_ file
Code: Select all
