Well, you can see that there really exists a convergence which is rather slow, but not surprising, taking into account a large cell.
1) you are to know which *WARNING** there is? and if it can be neglected.
2) why there are jumps in energy, maybe it's because of the *WARNING**, or it is still low convergence, or, my opinion, that this can be because of only 1 k-point.

Better make first iterations with a smaller RKmax, and later switch on higher one. You'll save time.
