[gpaw-users] non self-consitent calculation with PBE0

Hi

I think in general you need a denser k-point sampling for EXX
calculations compared to local functionals. 6x6 may be enough, but I
would test an increased sampling (perhaps 10x10) afterwards.

You should parallelize the calculation over ibz kpoints as usual.
