[gpaw-users] Regarding 'RuntimeError: Atoms objects on different processors are not identical!'

Hi Hanne

In trunk (and possibly in the old version; this I don't remember) the
faulty positions will be dumped to files if you use debug mode.  Then you
can check whether they completely disagree (something is wrong with the
parallelization, probably of the XC functional) or whether there's just
some numerical noise (some calculation is duplicated in a way that allows
numerical inaccuracies across different cores).

Best regards
Ask
