[DFTB-Plus-User] output statement overflows record

[Szendrő Márton]

Dear Ben,

Thank you for your suggestion, it eliminated the error indeed. However when
i tried to run with the default solver i got the following error:

forrtl: severe (41): insufficient virtual memory

I ran my 30 000 atom simulation on 140 cpu cores with a total of 420Gb ram
(distributed among 7 nodes).  Could you please help me whether this is a
bug or i just run out of memory? How much memory do i need to perform a
10^4 atom simulation? Is there a way to reduce memory consumption?

With sincere thanks,
Marton Szendro
