[Wien] WARN: Not all eigenvectors are orthogonal, and CLUSTERSIZE parameter

Dear Wien users,
I have met problems in lapw1.
I work in fine grained parallel mode, using 32 cpus, simulating a system
composed of 20 inequivalent atoms
(with hydrogen atoms, low MT radius). The cell does not have inversion
symmetry, and has a rather
large volume, i.e. circa 45800 (a.u.)^3.
I have put RKmax=1.8 to begin my test (for which I get 12600 APW's
already!).
After 4 or 5 iterations, the program diverges (eventough the mixing
parameter is not large, i.e. 0.1).
In all the iterations the program gives the warning:
:WARN : WARNING: Not all eigenvectors are orthogonal
and in the 'output1' it suggests to increase the CLUSTERSIZE parameter
in seclr4.F
Default value of CLUSTERSIZE is 200.
I have two questions:
1) Might this warning have something to do with the divergence of my system
2) Is there a way to judge the new value of CLUSTERSIZE, from, say, some
input parameters, or
one should just just increase it till the warning disappears?
Thanks for your help.
Valerio Bellini
