Grid-based approaches are required to calculate exchange-correlation functional integrals and corresponding focks. I want to ask if NWChem considers grid pruning to reduce the grid number. If so, what is its criterion? thank you!

NWChem does use a grid pruning approach pretty similar to what other LCAO DFT codes are using. Some good references for this topic are
