Dear Leonardo,
In general, it depends on how many spin degress of freedom you have,
i.e. how many magnetic atoms in the cell.
I think that is pretty normal..actually I would say your convergence speed
is above average..since for many magnetic systems I have converged,
I found a much slower convergence and more marked oscillating behaviour..
regards,
Valerio
