[Wien] :WARN : WARNING: RKmax reduced due to NMATMAX

To make that calculation feasible, it looks like you need a better 
computing system like a small cluster and mpi.

If ~8 GB is your total RAM, keep in mind that the Linux operating might 
use around 1 GB.  Using top [ 
https://superuser.com/questions/282867/why-does-the-memory-usage-in-top-not-add-up 
] or a system monitor [ 
https://askubuntu.com/questions/29757/what-can-replace-system-monitoring-in-the-top-gnome-panel-in-unity 
], you can check for any unnecessary processes and kill them to try to 
gain back more "free" memory.  Though, while this might help a little 
with memory, it likely won't help with the speed issue.

For speed, you likely need mpi or iterative diagonalization.  Are using 
iterative diagonalization (runsp -it) as was mentioned before:

If none of that helps, it looks like your stuck with doing less accurate 
calculations using small RKmax values.
