Dear Expertise The suggested values of the ecutrho and ecutwfc are making my calculation expensive. For instance, in the pseudo potential file of Bi, Bi.pbe-dn-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF <https://www.quantum-espresso.org/upf_files/Bi.pbe-dn-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF>, these are:
Suggested minimum cutoff for wavefunctions: 45. Ry Suggested minimum cutoff for charge density: 455. Ry Is there any problem if I use less values than these as much as the total energy of the system converges? Thank you in advance for your response.
