In the parallel version of PWSCF, plane wave are distributed among 
processors according
several criteria. In paricular the G-space grid (G=n1*b1+n2*b2+n3*b3) is 
distributed assigning
a  number of colums (or pencils) of G vectors (fixed n1&n2 and 
n3=1,...,nr3) to different processors.
Only non empty pencils (containing G vectors inside the cutoff sphere) 
are taken into consideration.
The code stops if the number of processors is larger than the number of 
non empty pencils.
Use less processors or if you are performing a calculation with more 
than one k-point consider using pools of p;rocessors to deal with 
different k-points.

in the version at Gamma only Davidson diagonalization is currently 
implemented.
