#HCN test targets essentially the Cusp Correction algorithm for all electron calculations.
A run will triger the generation of the Cusp Correction parameters as shown in files downdet.cuspInfo.xml updet.cuspInfo.xml
the VMC energy is then computed to evaluate the local energy and variance.
The long VMC reference run used to extrapolate the short run reference used the following VMC blocks:
<qmc method="vmc" move="pbyp" checkpoint="-1">
<estimator name="LocalEnergy" hdf5="no"/>
<parameter name="samplesperthread">1</parameter>
<parameter name="stepsbetweensamples">100</parameter>
<parameter name="substeps">5</parameter>
<parameter name="warmupSteps">20</parameter>
<parameter name="blocks">655000</parameter>
<parameter name="timestep">0.5</parameter>
<parameter name="usedrift">no</parameter>
</qmc>
This leads to the following statistics:

However, In order to keep the size of the files small in the reference directory, an equivalent VMC block was used using 1 sample per thread and 4096 threads
