Re^5: Facing memory issue in BSSE calculations.

Dear Siddheshwar,

at present, DLC generation algorithm in Firefly considers ghost atoms
just like regular atoms.  

As to DLCs, please take in mind that normally there is a little sense
to use DLCs in any computations except for geometry optimization
or saddle point location runs! This means that most commonly
you need to provide non-zero NZVAR only for these two types of jobs.
Otherwise, do not specify NZVAR variable and this will save you a lot of time.

Kind regards,
Alex Granovsky

Firefly ran properly for E(A)ab, but strangely giving memory error for E(B)ab (notations are as per the manual). Why is this happening? and how to get over it. Please guide me.
