Dear CPMDers,

When I run a OPTIMIZE GEOMETRY, I find that the CONVERGENCE GEOMETRY has
been reached and the programme terminates normally before the ORBITAL
converges to 1.0D-6.
My system is a solid-water interface system containing 76 atoms in total.
Is the convergence of orbital 5D-6 is "tight" enough for such systems ?
And how to pick this tolerance properly ?

Thanks for your suggestions.

Xiandong
