BSE fail

You can find here problems arising when using old releases of Yambo (< 5.0). Issues as parallelization strategy, performance issues and other technical aspects.

Dear Burak,
you have a very small excitonic matrix (dim=288) and you are using 64cpu without specifying the parallel strategy.
Yambo turns out the default as reported in the LOG:

Code: Select all

Response_T_space parallel ENVIRONMENT is incomplete. Switching to defaults
My suggestion is to use a fewer number of cpu and specify explicitly the parallel strategy, something like with 8 cpu:

Code: Select all

BS_CPU= "8 1 1"                     # [PARALLEL] CPUs for each role
BS_ROLEs= "k eh t" 
Best,
Daniele
