My system here is an opls-aa protein in a POPE/DMPE membrane with tip4p waters.

Prior to adding counterions, grompp yields a net charge of -1.999973 and grompp_d yields -2.0. Once I have added counterions, both single and double precision don't give me a warning about a net charge on the system. Either system runs fine for many ns and they don't crash.

1. Is the net charge really as close to 0.0 in the single precision version as it is in the double, or just close enough that there is no warning issued?

2. If single is farther from 0.0, is this a problem?

3. Why does single run faster anyway? I though intel processors treated them the exact same way in terms of the operations that needed to be carried out?

Thanks.
Chris.
