(T) is non-iterative so the notion of convergence does not make sense.

I do not understand your reference to SCF maxiter here. Are you trying to converge the SCF or the CCSD iterations?


Sorry for the confusion. I could not get the CCSD iterations converged. and the iteration shows:

As you can see, the converge tendency is okay but it just moves really slow. In your last reply, were you trying to say increase maxiter won't help in this case? (I have tried lshift as Bert suggested and it did not work either).

Thanks again
