[molpro-user] Increasing number of iterations in CIS calculations

Dear Evgeniy,

This usually means that they are converged already, but in that iteration the 
next r=HC-EC was so small that the program classified it as a numerical noise 
and did not use it for making the next update.

You should look whether in the iteration above both parameters (energy change 
and residual norm |HC-EC|) look reasonably small.

Best wishes,

Tatiana
