[DFTB-Plus-User] DFTB+ DOS calculation time

Hello everyone,

I was trying to calculate the density of states for the following
structures, I am attaching the POSCAR file and corresponding dftb_in.hsd
file for my calculation with SCC Tolerance of 10E-5. However, it is
taking me more than an hour for a simple DOS calculation for a system
having 292 atoms. Is it normal? I have attached my bash script as well for
your reference. Are there some mistakes? Can you please recommend to me the
best way of resource allocation for systems of <1000 atoms for fast and
efficient calculations?
