Hello,

Kindly see the manual:
http://www.abinit.org/ABINIT/Infos_v4.3/varfil.html#mkmem

Of course, the speed should be slower with "mkmem 0" ...

You can fine test examples in ~ABINIT/Test_*/*.
(Please get src_tests_*.tar.gz for this purpose. 
 Then, "grep mkmem ~ABINIT/Test_*/* |less" ...)

You can take your time to learn input variables 
by running all Test_*/* jobs, before starting your own jobs.
A proverb says, "The more haste, the less speed."

Good continuation,
Masayoshi
