Gromacs users,

Please let me know what is the best option for gromacs compilation
(looking for better performance in INFINIBAND QDR systems)

1. Intel composer XE i.e. Intel compilers, mkl  but open MPI library

2.  Intel studio i.e. Intel compilers, mkl, and Intel MPI library

GROMACS is strongly CPU-bound in a way that is rather insensitive to compilers and libraries. I would expect no strong difference between the above two - and icc+MKL+OpenMPI was only a few percent faster than gcc+FFTW+OpenMPI when I tested them on such a machine about two years ago.
