Re: [gmx-users] g_saltbr speed
Dear users, Its the continuation of the question I asked yesterday, Inorder to reduce the memory usage during g_saltbr calculations i got the trajectory of only protein, and tpr file without water and was able to successfully run it. But unfortunately this again got stopped at 36ns as it had stopped when i was using the whole trajectory. I tried with -dt 2, still the same problem exists. Kindly suggest a way out of this situation.

The warning message is intended to note that the .tpr file you produce will not likely work for running an actual simulation. It should be fine for analysis. -Justin -- Justin A.

Re: [gmx-users] g_saltbr speed
Its 50ns 25000 frames. the xtc file is 695MB. it has 16GB RAM. So will that be insufficient? I have previously run other analysis which used to take huge memory, for eg. covariance analysis, in a system with much lesser memory even though CPU usage was low the job used to finish. But in this case its not so. Thank you kavya On Fri, Jul 13, 2012 at 9:22 PM, Justin A.

Dear Sir, I had a problem again during g_saltbr calculation it needs .xtc and .tpr file, I can reduce the .xtc file to have only protein but .tpr file will have water also in it. inorder to generate new tpr file without water using grompp, i need topology file without water .. so do you suggest me to go this way.. it appears quite complicated!
