I am sorry I have not finished my problem. The optimized AGNR6 one is running successfully within 18 hours.

why is this file running so slowly

Dear abinitors,

I have two jobs: one is doing gw calculation of optimized Arm chair Graphene Nanoribbons n=6 (AGNR6) and the other is doing gw calculation of non-optimized Graphene Nanoribbons n=5(AGNR5). I attach their input files here.

about convergence study

Dear abinitors,

I want to ask a question: if I made a convergence study using Gamma point(0.0 0.0 0.0), could I use these input parameters for other k points in the same grid, which means I would not change the ngkpt and shiftk.

Thanks in advance for your replying!
