## Keyword descriptions

BLOCK_SIZE: integer = -1

  Usage: BLOCK_SIZE 4

  Determines the blocking used for the atomic quartet loops. A proper choice can speedup the calculation. The default (-1) is automatic. [Edit on GitHub]

NBINS: integer = 64

  Usage: NBINS 32

  Number of bins per process used to group atom quartets. [Edit on GitHub]

RANDOMIZE: logical = F

  Usage: RANDOMIZE TRUE

  This flag controls the randomization of the bin assignment to processes. For highly ordered input structures with a bad load balance, setting this flag to TRUE might improve. [Edit on GitHub]
