Dear all users,
Could anyone comment on how to estimate a good agreement of compensation charges inside the spheres when doing a PAW calculation, and if the agreement is not good, is there a way to improve this agreement by tuning which tag keywords?

PAW TEST:
==== Compensation charge inside spheres ============
The following values must be equal...
Compensation charge over spherical meshes = 17.234145660105135
Compensation charge over fine fft grid = 17.234066318343519


Thanks.
