[Wien] quetion on the increase the K-mesh (using runsp -i 1)

After having increased the k-mesh, you need to go to selfconsistency  
again. This will need less iterations than if you would have started  
from scratch.

Anyway, if you have set up a decent working plan, you have tested  
before which k-mesh you need, and such situations should not arise.
