Dear Akash, For local equilibration, your simulation time should be at least equal to Brownian relaxation time ~ a^2/D, where 'a' is particle radius and D is the 3D diffusion coefficient. This would imply that your MSD should be at least .6 * a^2. Some other possible checks: i. Make sure MSD

Hi, Don't even consider running on more than one node. You can see for yourself by comparing the performance of even just e.g. gmx mdrun -nt 1 -pin on gmx mdrun -nt 2 -pin on gmx mdrun -nt 14 -pin on gmx mdrun -nt 28 -pin on ... to run on different numbers of cores. Parallel efficiency drops

Hi Mr. Abraham. My system is quite small, only about 8000 atoms. I have run this system for 100 ns, which took roughly about 2 days. Hence, a run of 1 microsecond would take about 20 days. I am trying to shorten it down to 2 days by using more than 1 node. Thanks, Thanh Le > On Jun 29, 2017, at

Hi, Depends how many distinct simulations make sense to run. Normally you can make use of multiple simulations, so for a system of 20K+ atoms, efficiency is high if you run one simulation per node, compiled with thread-MPI, and leave mdrun to manage its own details. Otherwise, you could compile
