forgot to add that I tried to decrease number of CPUs to 16 and error
was the same

> Initializing Domain Decomposition on 64 nodes
> Dynamic load balancing: no
> Will sort the charge groups at every domain (re)decomposition
> Initial maximum inter charge-group distances:
>     two-body bonded interactions: 1.174 nm, Bond, atoms 3610 3611
>   multi-body bonded interactions: 1.174 nm, Improper Dih., atoms 3604 3610
> Minimum cell size due to bonded interactions: 1.200 nm
> Maximum distance for 5 constraints, at 120 deg. angles, all-trans: 2.626 nm
> Estimated maximum distance required for P-LINCS: 2.626 nm
> This distance will limit the DD cell size, you can override this with -rcon
> Guess for relative PME load: 0.87
