Stuck phonons when using 32-bit floats #5

Open christophersanborn opened 4 years ago

christophersanborn commented 4 years ago

Compiling with 32-bit floats instead of 64-bit floats offers significant memory savings, and perhaps some speedup as well. However, there is a stuck-phonon issue that happens ONLY when using 32-bit floats and has not been observed when using 64-bit floats.

Track this down and fix it.

This isn't solved yet, but with issue #8 this is rendered essentially harmless.
