Ín Wien2k the time spent in the FFT is small in all cases that I know of, particularly if you exploit mpi/omp, plus we don't use the algorithms that explore different methods. If you are going to use it for other codes (plane wave) then you might want to post to the fftw list for help. Or read configure.ac to work out what is being looked for, then check your gcc/icc/icx. The second option requires a fair bit of coding expertise, be warned!
