Dear Ian,
If one has sufficiently high resolution data, full matrix
refinement with SHELXL might be the best way to get real
convergence. The installation of the program also
converges faster (zero dependence!).
Best wishes, George

Hi Kristof
The trivial, and it turns out only, answer is "as many as it takes to
converge". Unfortunately for everyone carrying out optimisations, or
indeed almost any kind of computation, Alan Turing proved (1936) -
Google for "Turing halting problem" - that a general algorithm to solve
the halt
Dear,
I want to optimize a DNA-helix with the function "Structure
idealisation" in Refmac_5.5.00782 (CCP4_6.1.1).
My question, is this performing just a geometry optimization (against

And according to the number
